Hear me out: a reading app that allows for reading ebooks purchased from *any* source, and the ability to transfer books from one app to another (fine if not on both devices at the same time), say, so long as I use the same email/phone for them or whatever.
This is totally *not* a rant about something named Kindle. 😉 I shouldn’t have to use several different reading apps because some books weren’t available on every store.
I also think of how ereaders can be discontinued and you’re forced to buy a brand new device or have a secondary phone/computer to get books from. What about the elderly, or what if someone simply does not have a second, internet-abled device?
A more open ereader would prevent stuff like this. You can’t shut down store access to everywhere.
