After I login, is there a way to select that I have a Sony Reader as my default device, so I don't have to select the PDF type when subscribing to an RSS feed?
After I add an RSS feed to my main newspaper page [not my newspaper], the interface doesn't seem to easily allow me to unsubscribe to a particular RSS feed unless I can get to it again from the top-10, and then select unsubscribe.
I think it would be helpful to allow the doanloding of an entire newspaper as individual RSS feed PDFs. It seem like your server is being heavily taxed when asking for an entire newspaper, the request fails most of the time, when the newspaper is big.
Thanks,

Most of the newspaper part of the website could really be considered in an alpha state. We're rewriting currently the way RSS are generated and most of the work on the UI is not done yet. We'll update the website this week with some new features for the public domain part of the website, and then we'll shift our focus on something else: the UI for uploading/editing books and the newspaper part of the website.
Problem with a big newspaper is that we have to download the feeds and images from many different sources. If these sources are too slow, you'll get a timeout indeed. We might change the way we generate those PDFs: instead of doing this live, we'll generate them something like once every hour. This way it'll be an instant download for the user, but the information won't be as fresh.

We follow the Life+50 law. And this is not necessarily linked to where you're located. On the page of every book and inside the e-book themselves we have a message about the copyright status of the book.
