What's Different About Downloading to a Mobile Device?
Mobile devices (here meaning non black and white e-readers) have a different downloading process.
In order to download to a compatible mobile device, you can download directly to the Bluefire app, and will not need to download the Adobe Digital Editions software onto your computer. You will, however, still need to create an Adobe ID. Almost any mobile device (tablet or smartphone) is compatible, with the exception of the Kindle.
