Re: Free book downloads
Good info thanks.
For those that weren't aware probably the largest source of free ebooks is the
Project Gutenberg
One site that may interest the UK is
The University of Adelaide where you can get books still under copyright in the UK but not in Australia (eg George Orwell)
If you are unfortunate enough to have bought a
Kindle and hence tied to Amazon for your book supply then a book management program like
Calibre will free you from its bonds. Calibre will also convert other formats to suit your particular ereader.
Word of warning don't run the Kindle book manager at the same time as Calibre because they use the same database so a conflict and disaster may occur - using one or other at a time is fine just not running together. BTW that applies to any ereader not just Kindle.
If you want free audio books then
LibreVox might interest you.
