Yeah, the ease of avoiding the ads (not logging in, jailbreaking it, or just getting a cover) were all big parts of why I felt like kindle ads were so much less offensive than most online advertising.



I wanted an ebook reader so I looked around and bought a Kobo Forma. It's great. No ads that I've noticed, I can load whatever I want onto it.

As I understand it, Kindle is locked to Amazon. I don't know why anyone would pay for that, especially if it also shows ads.


It's not locked to Amazon, I load whatever book I want just fine.
