Question Do you download eBooks from iTunes?

I'm surprised to find no threads about eBooks. I recently published on iTunes and also have downloaded eBooks on my iPad. Do you read on your iPad or iPhone or is this still a site more geared toward music? Thanks for your response.

Yes, I love the fonts, the color and the opportunity to enlarge the size. I would prefer that all my books where ebooks.

Even when I read on an iDevice, it's Kindle books all the way. As the ad line goes, buy once, read anywhere. That removing DRM from Kindle books is trivial is another huge bonus as Amazon can't magically rescind them for some arbitrary reason.

I usually buy ebooks from Amazon. I think it's cheaper.

Most of my "reading" time is in a car while driving. So I get my books for Audible. I do find iBooks quite handy for PDFs of the many large manuals and parts books I need to carry with me. I could see myself using it for reading books someday as well.
