Being able to put epubs bought elsewhere and reading them without needing to convert the files is a huge plus

Where do you buy your epubs from?
In my case from different places like itch.io , smashwords.com, gumroad.com, some fundraisings that provide epubs. You also have some nice free places like standardebooks.org. Or you can sail the digital seven seas if there's no availability.
Theres a long trail of smaller stores, including Kobo store and ebooks.com
Standard Ebooks for high quality public domain books, though they also offer azw.
https://www.gutenberg.org/ has more books than you will be able to read in your lifetime for no cost. Some are classics for a reason, some are garbage - same as any other publisher.
There are a number of other free ebook sites out there as well.
I wouldn't assume that purchases are taking place.
Considering that the GP said
> Being able to put epubs bought elsewhere
I'd say it is in this case.
Kindle already supports that, or at least my 5 years old vanilla Kindle can.
really, epub without conversion? Which kindle can do thay?
