I know we just hit the 2000 mark a few weeks ago here but they have nearly 20,000. I'm guessing that site grew up after the MR uploads started. Still, can you tell me why it is beneficial to continue to build a separate set of files here? Is it for reasons of special formatting, correction of errors, or something else? If so, I will be more selective in choosing titles for conversion. I'm hoping I'm not asking a sensitive question. If so, just say so and I'll upload the files anyway (when I'm done).

Hi - I too have used manybooks.net a lot and they do seem to have a lot of books and pretty much all of them in .lrf format for my Sony PRS-505. However, having downloaded from both manybooks.net and this site, I would say that the quality of the conversions is much better here ('hand-crafted' as they say).
