And I was looking at the site and it's not easy to find what formats you support. You really need a revamp of the site and selection. If it's all PDF, then you'll tank. You'll be needing Mobipocket & ePub at the very least.
On the main page of Closed Circle there is link named
Download and File Format Help
It will take you to http://www.closed-circle.net/WhereItsAt/?page_id=598

if you have fast download and/or want all 11 file formats, from which you can pick those that serve your favorite e-book-reading gizmos, choose “FULL”. That’s a zipfile of (usually) about 3-5 MB with .epub, .fb2, .lit, .lrf, mobi/generic (.prc), .pdb, .pdf, .pmlz, .rb, .rtf, .txt. If you’re concerned about space/download time, choose “MINI”, which gives you a roughly 1.5 to 2 megabyte file with mobi/generic (.prc), .epub and .pdf only. (Calibre can convert any of those 3 into all the other formats.)
(emphasis mine)
I wish other e-book distributors were so well informed ;-)
