The link to the earlier thread doesn't reveal anything either. It doesn't correspond with Dr. Dibs memory. A post throws out a question, and the thread just stops with no conclusion. Amazon has had them for almost 2 years - no speculation in the reviews they aren't legit. When I googled , the only references points back to here.

Also - mine don't 'look horrible' - they look normal. It says on the inside cover "copyright 2009 Mary Stewart" and that KG Studios have rights to distribute it digitally.

Are there any facts, that I missed because they are technical, so I just haven't understood them? For example - do the publishers mentioned equal pirates? If so, why would Amazon let them into the store, and leave them alone for 2 years?
I don't think that you have missed anything. K.G. Studios appears to be a legit film making company that is/was involved with a series of internet shorts based on some Harry Potter fan ebooks if you google them. While I don't see anything that screams publisher, I also don't see anything that screams pirate. I gave my view on the matter earlier in the thread.
