I just got my first ereader, and am wondering if anyone has suggestions as to where I can purchase books but also download them (.epub, etc) after purchasing. I want to support the authors, but I also want to actually own the thing I'm paying for. Is ebooks.com a good option?

I've used Libby a bunch, but mostly with the "Send to Kindle" option, or just the integrated reader. How do you get the file to read it other ways? I'm thinking of replacing my Kindle with a Kobo color model.

There’s a “Read with…” option under Manage Loan that lets you pick the epub file. Some don’t allow it, but most I’ve encountered do.
