I don't think anyone has directly linked to a copy of the script from here, but its location isn't so much a secret as a moving target. See Okay, seriously confused about MobiDeDrm #132.

You need a Windows PC to buy LIT ebooks, but this format is generally considered the best starting point for format shifting because it is closer to the old OEB standard than MOBI. Also MOBI has changed over time, and old MOBIs are pretty basic. With recent MOBI ebooks there is little practical difference to LIT at the display level though, so it is ok to standardize on MOBI or use it when there is no LIT available.
