The rub is they are random numerical filenames,you have to either:

download the whole days worth (about 198mb in most cases, sometimes double that) then run the par2 - this converts the numbers into book titles, over time you will build up a huge collection

alternative is to grab the _translation.txt file for that day, or any day, and see what is included, if you only want 1 book - then only grab the number which corresponds to the ebook that you need, which will unrar into the book you are looking for.

hth :)

I just had a try of that using NewsDemon/NewsRover, but no success. Would I be better to cancel my NewsDemon account and start using UseNet instead? I find NewsRover a bit clunky anyway so I might switch anyway.

I use cheapnews/Pan. Works fine for these ebooks, though I don't often find much that's interesting.

What about mangas? Looking some to use on my reader kobo touch but can only get some jpg files?

thanks alot... hopefully i can find some textbooks on here for school!

I get a lot of books for my wife at mobilism.org
