[Philippe Lemay]

A friend of mine passed me a PDF copy of a book I really liked, and I converted it into ePub using caliber. It worked reasonably well, but there were some typos that probably resulted from a quick scan of the paper book.

Out of respect for the author, I decided to pay for the book itself on the iBooks store... Never again. I mean, this is the epitome of stupidity. With the free book, I plug it into caliber, convert it into any format I want, and play it literally on any device I damn well please. But if I pay 10 dollars for it...? OH NO! Apple has to make sure I can't play that on any single ****ing thing apart for the hallowed iPad.

I mean seriously, what the hell? It's like if they are trying to push us into piracy and illegal downloading. I paid for it! I should be allowed to read the damn book on my desktop! I'm not violating any DRM laws if I PAID FOR IT.

Edit:
AHR! NO! It won't even open on Desktop Stanza! Why Apple, why? Stanza is a reputable eReader!
