I'm sure I did post in some of those threads. And while a link to where the tool can be found, is very handy, it's not as handy as it could be. I KNOW when an update to The Tools has happened. I don't have to go looking. Because someone always creates a new thread here at MR in the news/general section announcing that a new version is available.

I don't have anything against obok, really. It's just not as convenient to keep up with as the other tools. For a long while, it only existed as various pastebin links scattered throughout the already hard to navigate comments section at Alf's place. Probably not the developer(s) fault, but it is what it is.

I have about four places I visit regularly on the internet. If none of those has a "New Version of Obok is Out" announcement on it, I'm probably not going to hear about it. *shrug*

And quite frankly, I only tried obok because I was desperate to get my hands on the DRM-free book. Once it didn't work for me, it never occurred to me that an update to a drm-removal tool would address a problem retrieving drm-free books. I just figured the obok angle was a dead end in my quest.
