Seems like I'm the exception, but I'm quite enjoying the giveaways for July. While I don't care for some of the books, I think they are legitimate free offers, and the idea of giving away a good book with the hope of selling a bundle with more similar books sounds good. I am hoping that it works and people buy the bundles so we can see this again.

I have the same problem with multiple credit card numbers (and names) on my ebooks because of the older books through Peanut Press. But newer purchases can be re-DRM'd so they all line up with the current credit card. You just go to your library of purchased books and do it from there. You do have to re-download them, but that's not too bad. And that only works as long as eReader.com supports it.

eReader is still my favorite book reader and DRM, and I like the integrated dictionary. Funny - you would think I'd prefer MS Reader DRM because you can unlock it with ConvertLit, but the eReader DRM is so much more flexible that I don't mind it as long as we're talking about novels so I don't mind if I eventually lose access after I've read it (e.g. if eReader ever goes bust, or I move to a platform they don't support).
