Adobe DE - Amend Metadata?
Anyone know of a script or something to amend the metadata in a DRM'd Adobe book?

As I have downloaded a bundle of James Patterson books from Diesel and only 3 of them actually list him as the author, the others say 'Author Unknown'.

I know I can list by book title instead of author on the Sony, but its just annoying.

If the metadata isn't encrypted you can change it - if not there is no legal way to do that.

The best legal way is to email Diesel and get them to change the file and then redownload it. It helps everyone if you do that.
