when amazon books could be de-drmed and “my” torrent site showed an interest/appreciation for uploaders i often uploaded ebouks i had bought.

well, both is no longer the case but if it were i still would.

i also occassionally buy music, books and even movies i very much like.

also i adhore being dependant on the whims of a company, being it amazon, netflix or spotify. i want a physical or at least selfowned copy of what i paid for and not only the licence to consume.

[Solved] Can't send selected pirated ebooks through the Send-To-Kindle service to my Kindle. Is it some kind of background piracy detection?

I usually download ebooks from Anna’s Archive and transfer it to my Kindle through the service. But 1/10 times it fails, with no apparent reason. The particular ebook in question is annas-archive.org/…/e310a253a9d85992129cc2b8dd351…. What’s the way out?

gwi1785 ,

AFAIK epub is not universally supported and def. not by any kindle.

best dl, run through calibre (convert to mobi/azw) and transfer this via usb to kindle.

best

How is pirating software a thing?

I understand that sharing video, photos, documents etc. is relatively safe because the data is not executed in the processor as instructions. How come people are willing to download and install pirated software though? How can one be confident that it does not contain malicious addons? Are people just don’t know the risks? Or...

gwi1785 ,

when you dl from any seller site do you know what you get regarding spy/mal/bloatware? for sure?

i would not dl from usenet or a public tracker though.

gwi1785 OP ,

i am a thief like we all are, no need for euphemism.

but i’d rather be robin hood than stoertebeker.

where do you think your files come from?

i just think if everybody once in a while would just buy and upload one file there would be a lot of new or unusual stuff.

gwi1785 ,

there are no longer many movies i like that much and if so i usually jtst buy the dvd.

it got way too complicated nowadays. starting with megabig files you not always can easily covert and watch.

then there is stuff i saw on tv which isn’t available for free often not even can be bought. i have never figured out how to crack these coded stuff. so it just is on a storage disc. i hate it but don’t know a way around.

so, you certainly are not alone.

gwi1785 OP ,

yes, mam has some books in german but mainly older stuff and 99% from ibooks. i used to offer but got tired of their inconsistent rules/category system and being forced to provide bookcovers. there was/is also not much interest and even less appreciation for uploaders in general.

ipt has sometimes french, spanish stuff (dunno if still there ) but i have never seen german.

gwi1785 OP ,

thanks. got a book from AA that was not on my other sources though not very new. will keep that in my bookmarks.
