Hey Experts,
We have bought our daughters (11 and 13 yrs old: big-time readers) kobo touch ereaders for Christmas. The idea of accessing all the free legacy titles as well as the easy library services was part of the idea. But, since the purchase I have had some second thoughts about the gift(s) - unopened - can be returned.
Can someone explain to me how the ereader accounts (either chapters or amazon etc) work with respect to your purchased books? My biggest concern is that if we get a book for one kid, would that mean that the other would not be able to access it on their own kobo? What is the drm like on these 'books'. We have an android tablet... would I be able to access one of the kids' books on the tablet? Or are they restricted to the one device that is tied to the specific account it was purchased for?
If these items are super restricted, should we set up both kobos with one single account that we/they use to buy books so that they can 'share' the purchases?
One last question... if they have a shared account now but then in the future have their own account, will they lose access to any books purchased on the original account?
thanks for any help figuring this out.
