Calibre's "Get books" feature is far superior. With Advanced Search, you can set a price of "0", and you'll find every free version of a particular book or author that's available. OK, it isn't a browser toolbar, but once you've done the heavy work of clicking once to open Calibre, and again to open "Get Books" (whew!), the payoff is great.
Actually the toolbar has links to Feedbooks, Gutenberg, Open Library, B & N, Amazon, Kobo & Scribd. And that's just the ebook links.
