Stolen from library.
I have like 10 books that should have been returned 30 years ago... Should I return them?

Most librarians would laugh at you, then tell you that the logs don't go back that far

You would be surprised.

literally listen to chad here, it's the all time goat reader and was subtly made to encourage piracy, especially comic/manga piracy.

- very high resolution large screen means images look fantastic
- expandable storage
- handle image formats and whatnot really well, no fucking about trying to block your pirated content
- excellent backlight
- waterproof

I've got the h20 1 and it doesn't like SD cards above 16 gig so idk what the 2 is like but it's not a huge deal.

I think YOU'D be surprised

Holy Molly, this shit is expensive. I'm gonna wait 5 years to buy one.

I don't know, in my shithole everything was manual. So they will laugh, and then charge for overdue.

They usually cap at the book value for the condition listed when checked out, then you're just buying it from them

Really curious as to why E-Ink is still so expensive

Version 1 user here. It's still great. All my pirated epubs display flawlessly plus good battery life. Standsby for weeks. The ui is a bit slow, but its eink so it can be forgiven.

I would be losing my shit

OP pic is really the high end with no challengers (for now). But I can't imagine buying a 600$ e-reader.

It'll probably be the same price
One company has a monopoly on the screen tech and charges out the ass, but for some reason Chinese companies don't seem to have a cost effective ripoff industry for e-readers yet

I have the H20 1, and I can go up to 32GB. The Version 2 doesn't have a micro SD card slot.

I have the standard Kindle Reader (2016). Plain and simple.

You cna go higher but it doesn't like it. I can use a 64 gig card, but it causes some problems.

buy a book

Wait I thought version 2 didn't have a sd card slot

No issues with the 32 GB micro SD. At least on mine. But realistically, if you're using it for just text, 16GB should be plenty.

It doesn't. The H20 v1 is the best e-ink reader you can get with expandable storage.

But with the version 2 you can read inside the pool.

>and was subtly made to encourage piracy
Kobo has an eBook store. You're thinking of Pocketbook or any chink reader.

My Kobo Forma makes me erect and the pricing is good within Canada. 8" screen, weight balanced under hand, 32gb, under 200g.

BOOX's are awesome but they're more for textbooks than books. Pretty heavy to use one-handed. Wouldn't mind one but I think an ipad is a more reasonable complement to my current setup

I'm kind of salty that e-readers with sd cards that are good don't really exist because I want to load and unload my chinese cartoon porn.

monopoly

it's also why there hasn't been any actual development/advancement in ereader tech in 20 years.

Wtf nigga

How old are you now, grandpa?

Any of the Kobos that allow you to install okreader (free/libre OS). The cheapest one is the Kobo Touch, which is made for womanlets but only costs $30 used. The best is the Aura edition 1, which is like $70 used. If you like physical buttons, there's some old Sony ones that can be flashed with a freer OS if I recall.

Let me know when I can get a dedicated epaper monitor with display port inputs that.

Also it's a dumb device that can stay powered on a 9v battery for a month not some smart device that needs a processor and clock running in the backround.

Also a backlight switch.
Until then idgaf nukka.

>okreader
Cool didn't know about this.

>very high resolution
Pick one.

no. let your body be a weight around the neck of the leviathan.

this is actually true. i had a fine of 50$ for returning a water-damaged book in 2008, and they wouldn't let me check any book out until i paid it. So I just waited it out, and alas in 2015 they modernized something and the fine just dissapeared.

Personally not using my kobo much desu, too small for my university/gentoomen books. Got an oldass 10 inch tablet that I use for those. Until affordable ereaders get released at a decent size I think this would be the Jow Forums solution

Drink bleach and shoot yourself in the mouth, you fucking failed abortion.

Stop thinking you fit in with the piracy chads you thieving degenerate. You aren't stealing from some megacorp, you're stealing knowledge and tax money from your fellow citizens.

Why the stylus though? Digital handwriting is ass and the worst of both worlds.

Enjoy your eye cancer

I know nothing about ereaders, can any of them read epub files you've torrented as long as they don't have DRM? And can you use them while reading when it's pitch dark?

I'm currently reading on my tablet but I'd like something smaller and that doesn't give you eye cancer

>I know nothing about ereaders, can any of them read epub files you've torrented as long as they don't have DRM?
Yes
For Kindle just convert epub to mobi with Calibre then copy via USB/wifi

>And can you use them while reading when it's pitch dark?
Modern ones have front light yes
Recent ones even offer both warm and cold light

>I'm currently reading on my tablet but I'd like something smaller and that doesn't give you eye cancer
Good because e-reader light is literally a lamp that shines ON the screen, not FROM, so it won't kill your eyes

Kobo with okreader as software

Kobo brand. Kobo Glo HD (old model) here, and it's based af. So glad I didn't fall for the Kindle meme. Kobo is literally the hands down best. The hardware isn't locked down and it's easy to mod it to boot KOReader with.

That camera autofocus is hilarious.

Got a Kobo Clara HD (6")

Great for epubs, decent for manga, a bit small for pdfs, especially if they're technical books, but you can zoom if you want to.

Decent trade-off since it fits in my pocket.

There's only one book out of my entire collection it has struggled with, but that's a 200mb car maintenenance pdf with full ocr and lots of pictures.

what's the cheapest e-reader on the market?

I accidentally brought a book out through those alarm gates, and I got taken away by security, they held me back from my class to write up an official report on the case, and they took away my right to borrow books for a month. It was weird as fuck, considering this happens every day, and I haven't met anyone who got singled out like me. (And before you ask, I'm not a nigger, there are no niggers in my country.)

>>/v/

Sony prs 505. It's dirt cheap, battery lasts practically forever, has an SD card slot, can flash PRS+ which makes it much more useable such as having folders and a book history.

I like the clara as well because it has natural / red backlighting so it's much nicer to read in the dark

are you the nigger equivalent of your country tho?

Fucking disgusting

I wish amazon would do a refresh of the 1st generation kindle, it legit was one of the most aesthetic e-readers. I also kind of miss having physical page turning buttons. The oasis having physical buttons is cool and all but $300 for an ereader is pretty retarded.

Why does /v/ have anti-piracy posters? Are gaymers just that cucked?

new technology always has to be expensive to compensate for research and development, and to compensate for the fact there isn't vast infrastructure to pump out cheap products.

underrated

just think about the fact there is unironically people begging for SINGLE PLAYER steam games on that cesspool of a board

Every country has niggers. They don't have to be black to be a nigger.

Haha nigga that fucking keyboard, what are you doing nigga writing your owns books or something with theses ?

why'd you need a kb?

Well, true that, but I'm white.

I just bought a Kobo Aura H20 V2 because of you guys.

I hope you guys are right! Thanks for the suggestion. I mostly read text books for IT certifications and /lit/ fiction.

There is the Kobo Aura one who looks good for reading Mangas and comics only but this thing is too huge for anything else.


You did good.

its because the chinese don't fucking read. there aren't chinese e-readers because there isn't a market for them in china. the chinese do not have a culture that values intellectual pursuits or knowledge unless its directly applicable to tangible gain, and also because they don't value books for the same reason western cultures do. the book is not valued for its publication, a book is valued for its physical state, the immediate contained knowledge in the language its written in, which is why they have an obsession with translating things into chinese but there is pretty much nothing written in chinese to be translated to other languages despite there being 2 billion speakers

the purpose of a chinese library is a collection of other cultures' works translated into chinaman readable form so they can say that they don't have to learn other languages. thats as far as i can tell the only reason libraries exist in china

I’m sure you think everything is trash when compared to your hentai manga you fucking disappointment

Based. Fuck the Chinese. People think they’re smart but they cheat on every single test they’ll ever take.

>there aren't chinese e-readers
What is Bouye

I would have just gone to a different library

kobo glo HD with Koreader. I have put a 128gb sd card i had lying around in it.

>its because the chinese don't fucking read
I wouldn't read either if I had to parse chinkrunes on a daily basis.

This thing is so cool for a writer/coder.
The guy who did this truly is a patrician.
