Kindle Is Still Worth It… But Not For Everyone


Listen Later

Over the few couple of videos and articles, the Kindle ecosystem has come up quite a bit. First, with older Kindles losing support, and then again in my last video/article about how buying a digital book usually means buying a licence to read it rather than owning it in the same way you own a physical book.

The comments on those videos over at my YouTube channel - The Spark! - have been interesting. Some people said, ‘This is exactly why you should leave Kindle and switch to Kobo.’ Others said Kindle is too locked down, or that digital books are the problem full stop.

And, to be fair, there’s plenty of truth in those comments. There’s also, I think, a bit of overreaction.
