For the digital readers, on which platform do you read and why?

Phone, eReader, tablet, iPad etc.

I personally have been reading on my iPhone but it feels a bit… off lately. Can’t pinpoint what exactly it is.

Was thinking to purchase a tablet or eReader but uncertain which one and if they’re worth to get for only reading.

EDIT: Thanks for all the responses! I’ll look into them all!

    I’m primarily on audible. Would love to find a good ripping solution, and then self hosting and using a third party app.

    I also keep calibre updated with all of my ebooks for storage. I use a Kindle for my ebooks, which I like because I can email files to myself instead of having to physically transfer them to the Kindle.

      Take a look at OpenAudible.

      I tried all sorts of stuff before getting OpenAudible and it works brilliantly. It costs about $20 (and there’s an upgrade about every year costing $8) but I’ve not upgraded and it still works perfectly.

        Good to know. My previous option was called epubor, I think. It stopped working recently when they switched the DRM…might be fixed in an upgrade by now, but I like to do these things in batches anyway.
