Yes; I've bought it multiple times.
In PRC (for Kindle) and ePub for the PB360.
The latest ePub version (25,000) came as 2 DVDs and the eubs all have proper metadata and a working TOC.
All it is is a DVD bundling of the Munseys content; just drop by Munseys and see what the books look like.
I've been buying Black Mask/Munseys DVDs since long before the lawsuit. I have the LIT edition and even Sony and PDF editions.
At those prices even one good book pays for it.
Frankly, I don't know why some ebook vendor doesn't talk to Mr Moynihan about bundling his books with their reader; instead of 100 (yeah, right!) raw Gutenberg TXT files, just slip in a DVD with a quality ePub (or PRC, LRF, or PDF) library in the box.
So many missed opportunities; no wonder Amazon is eating everybody's lunch.
