Very cool - thank you. Definitely much nicer than the average freebie version - although not, of course, as nice as the ones here on MobileRead!

sigh. For once, I can download them, but the magic dust isn't working . I'll keep on trying, though.

By "magic dust" are you speaking of certain Tools or plug-ins? Because if you are, I am having the same problem. Anyone else?

Yes. Thank god I am not the only one! In worst case scenario, I'll read it on my PC.

Thanks for the info. After I posted that, I managed to find a filter that listed 200 classics. Removing the duplicates, I'm now at 134; leaving 69 to go.

Mikaelalind, you are on a PC? I was wondering if I was having a mac issue, but I guess not.

Has anyone been able to get these books into Calibre? I also tried to re-download a book that I successfully added to Calibre some time ago, but this time it didn't work.

B&N has this thing where they occasionally create malformed ePubs so that the out-of-the-box tools don't work.

You have to use one of the other tools (which has "fix" in its name) in order to fix said malformation, after which the usual tools should work.

I was able to get them into Calibre without any issues. I am on a PC. Make sure you have the correct credit card number entered.

Your spoiler only lists 58 books. Shouldn't it list 74?

It lists 58 authors on one line per author each, 74 individual books (titles separated by semicolons).

I did have the correct CC number, but not the correct username. I blame it on being late here.

Ahhh... thanks. I just found two more duplicates in my list - one set had the word A as part of the title (the other didn't) and the other set had the word The (the other didn't). I now have 132 titles with 71 to go.

I usually love the B&N Classics' formatting, but does anyone else have the Pilgrim's Progress version? Even on my Nook Classic, it looks... funky. Very odd formatting.

Of the 20, there were only a few that I didn't already have, but I was able to add all the new ones to Calibre just fine. I run Win 7 (64 bit) and am on Calibre 0.8.12

Off the top of my head the new ones that I imported were Don Quixote, Art of War, the Kate Chopin one, and Paradise Lost. There was one or two more also, but all of them imported fine.
