@Thomas

Also, you seem to have conflated the kindlepid and kindlefix scripts. These are 2 separate pieces of code.

Just so you know, the kindlefix script does not insert a PID in to a DRMed ebook. Instead it takes the ebook and a matching PID (it's already in the ebook), and inserts into the header of the ebook the integer that Amazon decided to use to separate Kindle and Mobipocket ebooks. The DRM is not touched; it will continue to function as designed.
