Sorry, but didn't taos just say you couldn't? Or at least taos couldn't? And mentioned two different ereaders that it didn't work for.

Not to mention, it makes no sense to not embed that information in the encrypted EPUB itself.
Personally, I have no idea how it works. I have never borrowed a book vie ADE, so have never looked into. I was simply proposing the possibility that came to my mind when it was mentioned. But, a reason to supply it separately would be so that the full file didn't have to be unpacked to get the information. Plus it could be used as a validation mechanism (need both bits of info and they have to be consistent).
