Hi there,
I am located in Germany and use overdrive for borrowing from a US library. I cannot even begin to tell you how catastrophic this error is for me. I have a waitlist list of about 25 books on overdrive that are getting available now (after a looong wait) and I have to push them to "borrow later" cos I cannot open them on PB. Reading on a tablet or online mode just does not work for me (on the train etc).

I really hope that PB will do the software update soon. I am not super happy with the fact that they did not react right away to be honest (seems like a minor thing that they should have been aware of anyways??), but clearly I am not a developer and don't know how all this works...

apart from that, I always loved my PB and was very happy with their customer service. I think it might bite me in the a** now that PB is not big in the US where overdrive is mainly used.
