Does anybody use iBooks? I've always use Kindle Reader as it syncs with my Kindle and Audible when I want to use it.

What a dumb question.

I basically only use Apple Books. But I only read books I find, download, and add to the phone.

That’s what I do. I think Apple got wise to it though, so they started putting ads directly on the main screen of the app now. Seriously, I open the books app one day and have a topless Britney Spears staring at me. A pretty jarring experience, had to block books.apple.com on my network to get rid of the ads.

For real? I hadn’t even noticed but then again I haven’t used it in a bit.

Yes. I don’t like being locked into Amazon and I get DRM free versions I put in my books app, as well as some paid Apple Books. I like it more than Kindle in some ways.
