Here's the text of the email I sent them:

Quote:
You are distributing the software "AniceSoft - EPUB converter" which is
using calibre under the hood to do its conversions. calibre is licensed
using the GNU GPLv3. That means that you cannot distribute it as part of
a closed source application. You *must* open source your application if
you want to use calibre inside it, or immediately stop distributing it.

And I strongly suggest you cease your deceptive marketing practices as
well. You are using calibre to do conversions, acknowledge that fact on
your website and in your product. Dont be a slimeball.
