Do I need to install MS Reader?
I'm looking into purchasing my first book from Books On Board and have a few questions.
Please confirm these steps: 1. Download book in MS Reader version from Books On Board. 2. Download ConvertLit from their website. 3. Use ConvertLit to strip DRM from book. 4. Use Calibre to convert book to LRF format. 5. (Do I need to transfer the converted book to my Sony Library?) My main question is: Do I need to download and install MS Reader? On the Books On Board website, it said I need to download MS Reader before downloading my book.... I hate having extra programs on my computer if I'm never going to use it. Thanks |

Yes. You must download and register MSReader.

Thanks guys.
![]() I will download the books and MS Reader when I get home tonight. I'm just debating on Fictionwise or BooksonBoard now.... I think if I buy more than 20 books a year, it'll be cheaper to go with Fictionwise, but if I buy less than 20, BooksonBoard makes more sense.... decisions, decisions... |
