Gutenberg only distributed plain text files for years. Maybe 20 or 30 years but I'm not really sure how long.

I used to be a volunteer proofreader for Gutenberg and I really don't remember what year I stopped but they only distributed text files then. I bought a CD from them at one point with several hundred ebooks in plain text.
