Yep, we’ve talked to them about how they pulled that off, and would like to replicate that. It requires some technical stuff in addition to negotiations with publishers. Our preference is to have as much in subscription and available for DRM-free download as possible!

Right now we support EPUB but would love to add more formats. That's part of a long list of features on our wishlist, including better filtering. We’re a small team so we haven’t been able to get to all of this yet. Thank you for the feedback!

There's a note about DRM-free on the web series page for supported series, but we've been meaning to make that clearer. Unfortunately we can't allow that for all series. As I’m sure you aware since you work for Fakku, most publishers don't allow DRM-free downloads for their books.

Sorry about the FAQ not having enough detail. We updated it a while back but it needs a refresh for sure. Fixing that now!

As for how purchases work: a purchase unlocks the chapter or volume for in-app reading, including in-app downloads, and for select series we also support DRM-free downloads.

Hard not to think about what the future could have been for Matt. He was unstoppable, and I was looking forward to the kinds of manga he'd be working on in five, ten, or twenty years. He had so many books he was passionate about, so much he wanted to share with others, and such an infectious energy.

He was a vital partner for Azuki who believed in us early on, but more importantly, through that partnership I was able to call him my friend. I'm so lucky for the time I got to spend with him, and we're all lucky we got to read the fruits of his labor. It's unbelievable what he was able to build.

I was texting Matt just a few days ago about his treatment, and he assured me everything was OK and he would live. I can't believe this. FUCK
