In Calibre: Extracting the ISBN for the eBook. Then having a metadata provider overwrite it with the ISBN for the paper edition. You can't turn off downloading the identifiers either.

A change in calibre that never should have been suggested.

Depend on what genres you read, it can sometimes be hard to find standalone books that aren't part of a series.

An Imprint is like a supermarket own brand, but as if the supermarket also owned the production. An imprint is just a sort of marketing badge for a market segment, not actually a publisher, unless it the sole imprint of a sole trader. See ISBN assignment rules. You don't even need to register a tradmark or anything for an Imprint, though that would give the brand some protection.
But yes, publishing is confusing. Why does the richest nation on Earth get more and better special offers? Why are titles geolimited (I know the answer to that one)? The Publishing industry is broken. |
