Then what were these two posts about? https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...&postcount=241 and https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...postcount=308? In the first, when someone suggested that, based on your comments earlier in the thread or that they had seen elsewhere, that books with DRM that you had purchased had gotten onto the internet, you answered "yes it is". In the second you state:

Quote:
However, I download it to my PC and into its own caliber library - but none of my computers have DRM-removing software; this was also found out during the investigation at that time, during which all my computers were examined.
That sure sounds like you were being investigated. Note, I did not say you were convicted, or even accused of a crime. Simply that you had experienced some level of investigation into how DRM protected books that appeared to come from you were on the internet.

Or are you questioning my use of "with copyright"? If so, my apologies as I was working from memory and probably should have said "DRM protected" or something like that.

Quote:
I dont care, because my paper library hardly contains such.You write and you hardly have a clue.
Which is not under discussion. What is being discussed is how you source ebook copies of these books.

And it should be noted in this discussion that you are the only person who is lowering themselves to actually insulting people.
Quote:
I am interested in German literature, which I hardly can find in MobileRead library.
But yet you thanked @JSWolf for pointing it out. And as you hadn't bother to mention that you were only talking about German literature, how was I supposed to know?
Quote:
Project Gutenberg has only a minimal number of German language books and blocks requests from Germany.
That is unfortunate. Especially with your self-produced ebook versions of these German language books that are in the public domain you would be able to help fix that problem.

Or are all these books you are getting from the pirate sites actually sourced from PG? Or de version by someone who has done the extract and build.
