I know that Amazon might put a stop on you eventually but really - if you're buying the book you are buying the book as far as I'm concerned. 
I mean, I think a really high percentage of users here probably have Calibre goodies that make what you suggest possible but if we start swapping books around then we are ...... a file sharing site and I know the MR people aren't going to like that.
I understand your frustration though. Its difficult when you are sitting there with money in hand and they don't want to sell to you. |
I just use my Borderlinx address and that works fine. I'd use it to buy stuff too, so why not do the same thing to buy my books? This is what Borderlinx or USUnlocked are for: to enable you to buy from US only sites.
