  Yep, but it’s not something I can do with one click on the sofa, which was my original point

    @lepinkainen @penquin Kobo has a basic browser so you probably could. I downloaded a few copyright-free books from standardebooks.org directly onto my Kobo the other day.

      I “could”, but it’s still a ton harder than just clicking “buy next book in series”

      TBH it’s easier to plug calibre-web as a store in Kobo and just “acquire” all the books in all the series from … sources. Then you get the one click downloads easily 🤓

  @penquin @lepinkainen Kobo also comes preloaded with overdrive so you can get books from the library as well. The wait can be quite long though - but if you have enough on hold that doesn't really matter too much

    Does overdrive have only audio books or regular books, too?
