I long held that the Sony ebook program for the mac was written as a project by a first year summer intern. Of course, the good news was that it was so bad that it provided the impetus to write Calibre. |
It's bad enough that the app has these dumb limitations--I can't pretend to understand what goes into creating an app--but what reason is there for the instructions not to be clear about how to get the damn book on the device? If something's got to be convoluted, fine, maybe there's a reason, but give me the step-by-step instructions and I'll cope. Don't tell me to "tap to download" when that doesn't appear on the screen; if it did, I'm pretty sure I'd be able to figure out that I should, um, tap to download.
