Okay you all,
This is a link to Jeffrey Griffin's post about ebooks and files. It explains all
you would ever want to know about the different types of files and also, the two
things that Kindles use to keep out downloading ebooks except from Amazon.
Here's where you can read it all: http://jasongriffey.net/wp/
You have to scroll down through this guy's blog to Aug 25 where he has:
eBooks, filetype, and DRM
Hope that helps,

Subject: GEN: Target: Recent post that linked to a great blog about ebooks and
the two factors that keep Kindles from being open
Good morning All,
Karen DeFrank's query made me remember that great post in the past two weeks that
had a link to a guy who explained brilliantly the two factors that make Kindles
closed to downloading books from Overdrive. Does anyone have the link?
Thanks,
Barb
