These books are normally hosted using direct links to an EPUB. It's not like 'buying' a free book; it's just downloading a file.

It would fairly trivial to determine where the file is actually being served from by examining the headers during such a transaction. I would be extremely surprised to find that anything other than web pages were being stored on a WBM server.

It has been years since I downloaded that book, and that was only a week or so after the giveaway. I would be surprised if it's still online.
