Hi all,

I hope i'm allowed to ask this, but i was wondering; do you buy your ebooks free from DRM? If so, where can you buy them, preferably globally?

EDIT: thank you all for your valuable comments, it's much appreciated! Have a great weekend :-)

Exactly, that's why i'm asking. Where do you buy them, and can you also buy modern titles?

For games I buy them at: www.gog.com

Same here. I'm happy to pay for the games I enjoy playing as long as I effectively can own a copy. So i either buy them on GOG.com (or publisher website for some indie stuff) or find other ways to acquire them, because f**k vendor lock-in (looking at you Steam).
