    Went to look at the TOS. The service generated data (10.2) isn’t actually the bad part. However, 10.4 is.

    First thing, check with your local public library.

    They are most likely going to already have a free app to use with your library card. (If you don’t have a library card, get one. They are free and it is very illegal for libraries to give your data to anyone without a court ordered warrant).

    My library uses Libby, and it’s great for the most part on any smart device.

    If you do end up licensing (and it’s a license, not a purchase). Amazon’s Kindle store is good and has some exclusives.
