This is not to mention all the free magazines and newspapers I get by using the "Fetch news" feature of calibre.
That is so frustrating for us in the UK. I am not a techie, I want to buy a book, download it to my Sony 505, and enjoy the book. I find it difficult and very frustrating.
There are not many sites or ebooks available here in the UK. Certainly free ones are very very few and far between. I don't understand why we cannot buy books from the US. Or even download the free ones. If I was persoally there I could go into B&N and buy a book with no restrictions so??????
Over here I can still buy pbooks at half the cost of an ebook. And it uses all that paper etc!
Rant over from quite a disappointed user.
