Martview seems to be a nice looking app...
Today I stumbled upon a seemingly free e-book reader called Martview (at martview.com).
Judging solely from their webpages, their application seems quite nice (as in nice looking, that is...as I have not tested it yet) and offers tons of books for free download.
The strange thing about it is that the books have been uploaded by other Martview users. And thus you have books like "OReilly Programming Visual Basic 2008", "Physics For Dummies", "The Grand Design" (by Stephen Hawking), etc available for free download...
So what I am wondering about is how the makers of this application are staying in business and how long will this business last considering the upload of this sort of copyrighted material:-P
Or maybe my thinking is wrong here. Does anyone here us Martview and what are your experiences with it?
(In case you were wondering: Martview only does pdf and the proprietary mart format, so not very universal)
