So, I've finally figured out why Black Library isn't selling books on their website anymore:
They've now got an app for that.
And you can't download newly bought ebooks anymore either.
I'm not going to start reading their books on an app.
Also hint to the business assholes: This is going to increase the ebook piracy. Massively. How are they this stupid?

Interesting. I've now gone through a number of German book shops, and it's the same pattern everywhere: I can get the English version of the books, but only in paperback. Or I can get the eBook, but only the German version.

@mmeier@social.mei-home.net That really is stupid. I have not replaced my 300 kindle books and deleted my amazon account to now do the same vendor lockin trap elsewhere....
