Honest question. Where can I buy ebooks outside Amazon to use with my jailbroken Kindle? Is there a Bandcamp for books?

I want properly created files the kindle can render with the options I want, not a pdf that forces a layout.

I googled, and it seems Kobo can? But I don't own a Kobo to test it.

I own an Onyx Poke and I buy my books at kobo. They work just fine. With a jailbroken Kindle capable of processing EPUB this should (!) work. Give it a try with an inexpensive book, maybe?
