title_body: google ebooks from linux to ereader I am considering a ereader (nook) where I can read my ebooks downloaded from google-play books.
  
  Only problem is when I download .epub from Google Play Store, I actually get an .acsm file, not .epub, and Google Help says I need Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) to convert.
  
  I can probably do that with wine + ADE, but I don't think I can transfer it to nook as wine do not support USB (as far as my last experience and I haven't use wine for years).
  
  Given this scenario, is there any other way to get Google e-books on my nook?
  
  NB: I haven't bought my ereader yet, just exploring; but one of the criteria is to be able to read Google books in my ereader and do it within linux.
  
  Any suggestion please?
upvoted_answer: For Linux you need to run ADE in Vine. On this page there is a pdf and a video that I made for my library on using ebooks via ADE for Linux users. FWIW, I had trouble getting ADE to detect ereaders on Linux ( ubuntu). Your mileage may vary. Good hunting!
