An amazing piece of software. The access to magazines and periodicals alone make this an absolute must-have application.

Yeah Calibre is neat, but the rss feeder is a form of information piracy yes? Why this perceived different than piracy of books? Perhaps it is not? I'm referring to the circumventing of ad based revenue streams, through which many news sites are able to buy food for their journalists.

Can't there ever be a simple 'feel good' thread without someone trying to pick a fight?

Every thread makes me feel good. What doesn't make me feel good is the idea of picking and choosing which forms of copyright to abide by.

Yes google has convinced the courts that caching of webpages for search purposes does not infringe on copyright but I am not sure that caching of rss feeds for sending to an ereader does not. By the court's logic then Calibre is a tool for enabling the piracy of web content, by mobileread's logic links to the program should be deleted.
