Saw a number of free books on Apple Books and was wondering if I could get them on my Kindle. Every single one I tried was DRM-free other than 1984.

Obviously, there are much easier ways. Or just pirate that shit after you've bought it.

I agree with purchasing something to support the creators, which is done mostly to allow them to make more similar stuff. Orwell has been dead for 73 years though. I hope he doesn't write any more. I don't know where the money goes for the purchase now, but it's not supporting the creator anymore.
