Is there a way for me to download books that I missed? I think that I only downloaded three of them.

Today's book looks good. Mystery/suspense category, Kiss of Deceit, Patricia A. Rasey. I haven't read any by this author. I hope I like the book, I'll buy the rest.

As far as the credit card, I like it better than the other types of DRM. I don't blame authors for not wanting to make everything "free". I don't mind paying for books, paperback price not hardback, it's worth it for the convenience.

Yeh I was originally thinking the same thing, but I think the difference is that they are giving *you* a free copy, not making the book itself *free* (public domain) . My guess is , apart from copyright limitations (and therefore locking it to your CC), that this way they only give away a limited/finite number of books, and somewhat ensures that there won't be unlimited "free" (unlocked) copies posted by a recipient somewhere for all eternity ? The authors are still entitled to- and I guess hope to- sell their books to someone else after the 24 hours freebie! :)

Great promotion though- and it's working for them I guess as I've already bought extra books..... :approve:

I downloaded the free one today and it never asked for my CC number or anything.

Well that might blow my theory out of the water !
unless....
Were you already signed in from a previous visit ? I tried signing out then attempt a download, and in my case it wouldn't let me download without logging back in.

Nope, not signed in or anything. I typed www.ereader.com clicked the link for the promo and downloaded the book. I then installed it and opened it, read the first couple of pages. No problems!

Then I went and drank my 20 "Saturday" beers. :)

That's right, to hell with them. Its not enough that they give me something for free, they better give it to me unDRMed as well.
