Frankly, somebody who was 100% adhering and sympathetic to copyright would be a quite the fool to waste their time transferring formats like what we are discussing here, when Amazon and similar vendors provide a seamless experience and an adequate reading experience with their paid services and locked devices/formats - perfect for the lovers of copyright! It doesn't quite add up to me. Seriously, give it a break with the copyright lecturing!

The book I was interested in, wasn't available in ebook format, and I made that completely clear, plus explained the circumstances surrounding the situation. Take it or leave it.


Arrgh!

You must forgive us -- threads here on MobileRead often go off-tangent as members start chatting about anything even slightly related. People just set up their soapboxes anywhere, you know?

But nobody means to target you, I am sure. They are just advocating in general.

Anyway, my rip is complete and I am very pleased with it. I think it beats the formatting and look of most retail ebooks book I've seen.

I've learnt a lot about how to format ebooks and I really appreciate all the support I received in the forum.

I ended up with 6 HTML files for the Bible texts, 1 TOC, 1 metadata page and 1 cover page which I compiled to epub.

It looks beautiful on my reader.

Good to hear. Enjoy!
