I've found a big in the Apple Books cover plugin. I can change the number of covers to download past 2. But I can only specify 2 countries to download from. Either the number has to be limited to 2 or it has to allow more countries when the number is set past 2.

Jon, if you look at my previous message with 10 covers, 5 of those are downloaded using Canada as the country, the other 5 are downloaded using UK as the country.. Only two of the covers are the 'correct' cover for Dark in Death. The limit of 5 covers I was using is 5 covers per country for a maximum of 2x5 i.e. 10.

You may also want to read message #12 in this thread posted by Majutsushi.

It's intentional that you can choose to download more covers than there are stores. When searching for a book the first result may not always be the correct one, or there may be multiple different editions in a store, and so you may want to get multiple covers per store just to be on the safe side.

If the idea was to only download a single result per store then there would be no need to configure the result count in the first place.

I thought the number was to say if you wanted 1 or two stores to be downloaded from. If you want a third country, how does that happen?

You ask nicely for an enhancement? Though I personally don't see much use for multiple countries. One time I was playing around with other countries and very few English language books were not using either the UK or NA covers.

I'm set to download from the US and UK. One of the two covers will do.
