Feedbooks only generate what's inside the feeds. If it's a partial feed, we'll generate a partial feed.

Based on what I've tried a few months ago, Mobipocket Reader actually extract content too. I remember than on Techcrunch's feed for example, I ended up with dozens of pages of comments too, while in the feed, there's only the main story.

Extracting content is quite problematic:
- not sure that it's legal for a service to do this without the approval from the content owner (it's quite different from simply displaying what's in the RSS feed)
- it'll take significantly longer and can be a real ressource hog to do this live for hundreds of users at the same time
