I don't buy from the Kindle store because they have not got Mac software yet so I can liberate it. If it isn't at Kobo, Sony, Smashwords, Fictionwise I don't buy it.

Who would have ever thought that non-fiction month would end in a tie between cadavers and serial-killers? What say we chuck it all and go with Darwin?

Zipr · 03-09-2010, 02:05 PM

Well, we need some kind of resolution here. What say you PB?

A great idea. Life instead of death!

I think it'd make it harder to get a good discussion going.

Wow, you've really gotten into this month's theme of murder and dead people.

Actually, the tools used to liberate AZW DO work on a MAC.

You just need kindlepid.py and MobiDeDRM.py (version 13)

ficbot · 03-09-2010, 04:32 PM

But you can't get the books onto the Mac without the Mac software, can you?

Yep... that's what I was going to say...

Choose one, or read both. I will start a discussion thread for each.

The PB has spoken!

WT Sharpe · 03-09-2010, 06:08 PM

I'm sorry, it feels like a cop-out to me. Rather than participate in one of two half-discussions, I think I'll skip both and read Quirkology. See you next month!
