Well, we have to draw the line somewhere.
Dialup creates several technical and user experience challenges which are difficult to overcome. Even if you just wanted to download books to read, the time spend on the transfer (especially for a graphic novel like "Crude Behavior") would be frustrating.

It goes beyond simple liability; we respect IP rights, and don't want any unauthorized or illegal content on our site.
