Do y'all use E-Readers?
I love paper books but I travel alot, so packing 50lbs worth of books isn't the best option. Any idea which of the big companies offer the biggest libraries? Leaning towards the Kindle because Amazon tends to be pretty good about these things. Also I am cheap and want a cheap device/bookstore. Extra features aren't a huge deal for me
Kobo and Draft2Digital.
Kobo is the best ereader you can buy. No drm, no nothing.
The best source for free books is #ebooks and #bookz on IRC.

Both Kindle and Nook are great devices with large libraries. I'd say Kindle has a bit of an edge, but wouldn't discount Nook.
If you're willing to find books on the high seas, both options are pretty much equal.
Overdrive (an eBook library through your local public library) mostly supports both.
Kobo has DRM support. Not sure what you're talking about.
That's a good thing though, because most storefronts sell DRM-protected ebooks.
I don't think books from the kobo store have DRM though, which is what I meant in my post. Thanks for clarifying though.
I love my kindle. Buying books off of amazon is too easy, keeping it in airplane mode is simple, and anything you download, you can just convert online if you need to.
But the alternative (Kobo) is a device where you don't have to pay for books, don't need the internet to use, don't need to worry about airplane mode with, don't have to convert anything. It's superior in every way.
Which ereader has the best specs, performance, and build quality?
