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 :-)

I don't know where to buy them DRM free, but I can usually buy a DRM book from Amazon kindle, for example, then just download the DRM free book from a website like oceanofpdf.org

So, this is a website where you proof you bought the book legitimately and then, they remove the DRM software for you? Or do i misunderstand it? How much would they charge for this?

It's a piracy website, but if I've already payed for the book legitimately, I don't feel bad about using it.
