I don't like Dropbox much, so rarely use it. I'm not a fan of cloud services because too many times I don't have a connection. I have the wifi only iPad mini, but got 128gig one to make up for no reliable connection when I'm away from home.

Until the IOS problem is fixed, I'm using FileBrowser by Stratospherix. I can then copy my entire library over to the iPad over wifi. All in their own files, which are based on my Collections.

I just click on the file I want in FileBrowser and it asks what app I want to open the book in. Then I pick Marvin. It puts the book in Marvin's library.
