What's the problem? I read many things I don't own, how does that change the reading experience?

>> No.16513863

I bought an e-reader so I could pirate books and read it without eye strain. Bow down.

I download pirated PDFs on my Kindle but i cannot zoom in. Should I download them in another format?

I'll buy large collections for the sake of convenience. This is worth 3 dollars because you could waste hours searching for everything.

I don't think Kindles actually load the entire book at once. If anything it's a tiny bit slower in opening up but otherwise there's no difference.

>> No.16514336

Well they're not wrong legally since most people pirated them, but while I dont "own" the 0s and 1s, all I really need is posession and use of them, which I do enjoy. Amazon can keep owning the ebooks for all I care lmao.

instal koreader or something on it. be careful, though, with the warranty. It's absolutely fine for kobos, but I think you cannot return your kindle if you install 3rd party apps on it or something.

there are some reviews on youtube of koreader it makes the pdf reading experience 100x better.

Ignore these threads. They're either larping fishing for (You)s or absolute retarded boomers who can't understand the concept of the cloud.

The last time a purchased ebook was deleted from a user's Kindle was close to 9 years ago and it was by mistake.
If you've ever used the send-to-kindle feature to email a pirated book to your device, the converted ebooks are hosted in Amazon's own website, and those don't get deleted at all. OP is a retard.
