An, who is going to lose anything on this anyway? Mobipocket gains more sales with every device that runs their software (that is why they give it away for free after all I guess...) because people then buy books in mobipocket format...
Mobi come down like the proverbial ton of bricks on people who distribute their software without authorisation - we've had experience of that on this site, as you know, after some joker tried to do something of dubious legality with the Java version of the Mobi Reader on the iLiad. Don't mess with Mobi's lawyers - you'll regret it!
