I'll just stick with only buying DRM'd books from either Amazon or Barnes and Noble, and avoid having to deal with Adobe's DRM at all.

B&N's DRM is Adobe as well (just a different key method). Whether anything potentially changes with them at some point I don't know.

It's worth it to me to not have to deal with Adobe. Ever.

Yes, but I don't have to have an account with Adobe in order to read my books.

Kobo also has its own DRM which is easily removed, so you can buy from Kobo and never deal with Adobe either.

But stripping Adobe's DRM (for now) is a lot easier to deal with the resulting ePub then the kePub with the DRM stripped.

Hey, I'm working on that!

(And seriously, I'm about to lock that Kepub-cleaner module down. If anything's wrong, I need to know now.)

As I don't yet have a Kobo and I don't have any kePub, I cannot help with that part of the plugin. But I do have to say, I really like the <span> eliminator. I find way too many eBooks with these silly spans that do nothing but code bloat.

It's an ePub, but has some Kobo junk left in it.

But the junk is no worse than the coding you see in many ebooks.

It's a bit more prolific, at least to my eye...which is why I'm working on an extension to the "Modify EPUB" plugin that removes that gunk. I thought I had the mods locked down, but a bug report came in yesterday that I need to address.

Not really no, but it's junk that can be done away with just the same.

Thank you for doing it. I hope to not need it too often, but it sure comes in handy with kePub only books.

you can google search acs fulfillment statuscheck, there is page at datalogics which explains.

its 4.0.3 for kobo.
So has anyone tried this? I don't understand how to do it. I googled acs fulfillment statuscheck, but didn't find anything telling me how to get the fulfillment url from an ascm file

This is a line from an Overdrive ASCM file...<operatorURL>http://acsepub.contentreserve.com/fulfillment</operatorURL>

The URL you want is http://acsepub.contentreserve.com/fu...nt/statuscheck. So all you do is take the server URL and tack on /statuscheck to make the URL you want.

Thanks! I saw that url, but its labeled operatorURL, not fulfillment. Yeah, I know it has the word fulfillment in it... I take everything literally.
