I knew about the scanned books. As I recall they are mostly old out of print books from the beginning of time (almost ). I even downloaded some science book from the 1800's out of curiosity. I also recall that a number of the scans (no idea of the amount) were very poor scans with wonky pages that weren't set properly on the scanning bed.

Are you saying that "every" book they sell has a scanned text version?
