I can't use half the ebook readers because they come jam packed with ads for their app store, browser for distraction, frequent updates and attempt to push other apps on you.

I will stick with my paperback books for retention.

Have you mostly used Android/Tablet based readers like the Kindle Fire or similar?

I have similar issues with lots of online services for more than just ebooks, but it seems like the e-ink devices (I use a Kobo) tend to be more minimal and focused on simple functionality.

Nothing will replace the smells and sensations of turning a physical page, but a basic e-ink device has made it much easier for me to read far more than I used to be able to (vastly more portable being the biggest improvement).

So use the other half? Why do you need more than one anyway?
