@ Ath
Natch is talking about buying a p-book, and then converting it to an e-book. |

If i do that, i feel fine on a moral ground. But i would say, it is still illegal. Because i dont make the copy myself, but get it from the internet. This shows, we need a better ebook format and no DRM and publishers and authors, that sell for a reasonable price.

ok feeling slightly dumb here :/
what is a oeb book?, a single file or a collection of files (like the html/jpg/gif/opf when you unlit a lit file) the iliad doesn't seem to recognise the extension .oeb or as i tried a folder with all the unlit files in it (assumed it might try to open the opf file) maybe the software isn't capable of running it yet which is odd as i thought .xeb were in some part similar. |

Btw.: You can open password protected PDF with the iLiad. You just have to activate the keyboad to make the dialog box visible.

The document container that's based on ZIP archive structure carries the .epub extension (still only proposal). The so-called file-container seems to be an plain file structure, the 'top' file of which seems to be found by locating a META-INF/container.xml file and interpreting it ... but all examples I have seen so far use .opf as extension, so that may be a second method. The container specification is still, I think, being drafted: it was recently posted for public comment at www.idpf.org . |
