Well I never, I didn't realise humble bundle region locked bundles
Yeah I already wrote them about this on a previous bundle.
I was rather annoyed about it because not only it was not available for me, but they still sent me a newsletter ad for it anyway.
Got an answer :
Hi there,
Thanks for contacting us. We wouldn't be Humble without honesty.
I'm sorry for the confusion with the Urban Fantasy bundle. It is currently only available in North America.
I definitely understand where you're coming from though. I'll be sure to raise your concerns with the rest of my team, and we'll consider it when making future decisions. I can't guarantee that we'll be able to take applicable action, but we appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us.
Please feel free to share your feelings with us anytime.
Thank you again,
I think they may have stopped sending those, because I don't remember getting a mail for that Terry Pratchett bundle. They still have links to it on their site even though it leads to the "sorry, we don't care about your region" page though.
Not too annoyed about that particular bundle because I probably have all of these in physical form already. But region-locked books is still terrible, I don't care what their reason is.
Same, I loved these books, but not available in Australia!

Does anyone know what format these come in? I'm not familiar with how kobo does it.
Kobo has their own flavor of epub called kepub. Readable as is (minus DRM) via any epub reader. The biggest difference is that it includes indexes that their ereaders use to track what page you are on, but are otherwise invisible unless you’re looking at the raw xhtml.
The Kobo Desktop app in combination with Calibre and the obok plugin (part of the NoDRM/DeDRM plugin) can easily strip the Kobo DRM and it outputs EPUBs.
This is what I use and is one of the easiest to remove from the books I buy. I’m happy to answer any other questions (I already bought this, I posted the original).
Thank you!
I have never tried to deDRM kobo ebooks so wanted to ask: does the deDRM plugin that is used with calibre to remove kindle DRM work for kobo? And does it work with latest version of kobo desktop app? Amazon is making it so difficult to remove DRM nowadays, I am wondering whether I should shift to kobo.
Looks like EPUB 3 with adobe's DRM
This is it. It exports with Adobe drm
It's through kobo, but I don't know if you'll be able to download your books or they will just be available to you on kobo.com
If nobody replies, I may test it and report back
Good question, unfortunately I don't know
