I want to buy open source drm free e-books however I see Kobo that is a Canadian subsidiary owned by a Japanese Company while Apple is American with some operations based in Canada, California is closer to British Columbia however they often use closed standards.

Kobo supports OverDrive, which is a system that some (not all, but some) libraries use to manage ebook loans.
