Hello,
for a long time I was a user of PocketBook; I chose this brand because they were neutral against PC Operating System, the reader was simply mounting as an external drive and I could copy there various non-DRM epubs and PDFs on different machines without unnecessary registrations, accounts, software, being bind to a certain library etc.
As I am a Linux user, I would be rather annoyed with e.g. Kobo which gives users software for Mac and Windows only and needs some hacking to be fully operational under Linux.
Unfortunately I lost my reader and am about to go for vacations, so desperately and quickly need one. I am now in France and wonder if I get a Vivlio HD Plus (https://www.vivlio.com/en/vivlio-readers/) will I be able out of the box to copy my books? Or will I need Linux hacking to get around it?
From what I understand from the Vivlio website here:
https://help.vivlio.com/hc/en-gb/art...t-should-I-do-
It should work, but I would very much appreciate feedback and confirmation from users.
Thanks in advance.
