a high-performance WiFi-based calibre device emulator a superb device-based calibre library organizer See the end of this description for details.Ĭalibre Companion (CC), recommended by calibre developers, is three applications in one: I am working on a fix, but it will take some time.Ī free demo version is now available. When I see common errors, like its/it’s or flair/flare, it ruins the book for me regardless of how well the author crafted the characters or plot.WARNING: Dropbox removed support for the authentication method CC uses.
Of course, I’ll post feedback to that effect, too. I’m an educated person and find I get angry when I read what amounts to an unedited rough draft. bad proof-reading/editing, poor grammar, predictable plots. But before I download even a free book, I check page numbering to rule out novellas and read reviews to see if anything rules out this book, i.e. I’ve started looking for books published by a known publisher (Scribners, Tor, Etc) instead of small presses and self-published works. I agree with the poster who found that most recent science fiction is terrible. I do keep books I liked to read again or to know the author’s name and pick up sequels later. Ultimately, anything I have already read and not deleted stays on the Amazon Cloud. I use the Collections app on my Fire and store old books in the Archives file, keeping unread books in my Current file. So what do you do with your ebooks once you finish reading them? That’s why there are lots of complaints about only having 4GB of internal storage space with no memory card slot on Kindles and newer Kobos and Nooks. Some people like to be able to have their entire library downloaded to their device, even all the stuff they’ve finished reading. In the meantime I could care less where the actual copy is located. Really good ones I may want to read again in a few years, but I worry about that when it happens.
I guess it could happen to a small business but I don’t see that happening with any of the major players (well, except maybe Barnes and Noble since they don’t allow customers to download ebooks as it is).Įither way, I mostly ignore books once I finish them. I’ve never heard of an ebook store closing and not letting customers download their ebooks first. The way I figure it, none of the main ebook store are just going to close down overnight, so I don’t worry about that kind of stuff. They want backup copies of everything, and don’t trust that their books will be available to download in the future. I know a lot of people are much too paranoid about stuff like that.
