But perhaps this is geekish ?
Seriously--yeah, it is. Firstly, you can more easily detect FXL books by simply looking at the devices available for, at the top. Nor can you reliably adjudicate quality; I can tell you that we've done books with just shy of 1,000 images--large ones, initially--and our images are of much, much better quality than half the books I see out there with 10 images. Thirdly: sure. If you have to worry about download times, THAT, I understand.

But I'd guess that certainly, you're 1 in 100.

Not sure what the recipe book link is about?
