They did contact me -- and a few others, I think -- about why I was sending them 300 books in one month. They were curious about the use case and I told them about library conversion. I guess they took from that that $3 a book for making the book title the name of the PDF was added value. I would say more research is needed on their part.
They're probably astounded out how big the demand is. Suspicious even; there's gotta be a catch! So, they're looking at their Canon Imagerunner high-speed document scanner and thinking, 'Damn, I need 10 more of these!'.
