Adobe Digital Editions and Linux Ubuntu

Adobe,

Please create ADE for Linux!

I also wish a version of ADE for linux...

Adobe, do it! Do it now!

And this is a shame. Unfortunately I made the mistake to buy a book without noticing the system requirements.

The fact is that I use LINUX and period. A company that provides this kind of services should be more open to allow any users to access their legally bought e-books in a cross-platform approach.

I hate M$ Windows and I can't be obliged to buy something I don't like, MAC is expensive, Android... Ok, I have my Android phone, but it is a small phone and not very comfortable to read an extensive technical book.

I admit it was my fault I didn't notice the requirements and that ADE is not Linux friendly, but honestly I'm very disappointed with Adobe and their ADE software. I think for a corporation with this size and for such a specific tool, that has to be welcomed buy all e-book sellers in order to protect their books and avoid piracy, a wider and more open mind is a demand and an obligation for Adobe.

Otherwise is like telling Linux users to look for a e-book illegally (using torrents) or to spend hours trying to find a solution to make ADE to work with Wine. (4.5 is not working at all on my setup). I'm still hanging around a way to make 3.0 working and downgrading my Wine setup, not sure if it will work.

Same for Cloud on Linux https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1057800

Adobe aren't interested in providing a Linux version of Adobe Digital Editions.. Never have been and never will be.
