Actually, in the US, use is not illegal. Writing and and distributing it in the US is illegal.

I'm very interested to have a look at it. The downtime of mobipocket.com and especially their information policy made me worry about the future of my ebooks. Again, many thanks for your help... |

As I mentioned in the "Secure Mobipocket Decoder v0.3"-thread, in the EU there's this EUCD (European Copyright Directive), which is much like the DMCA. But it's really bad they actually made use of it

BOb (Though technically not "illegal" but a copyright infringment which is a civil offense which becomes criminal if you are doing it for profit.) |

Search for MobiDeDRM and you'll find what you are looking for. Also, you'll want to get version .01 and version .02 an neither is perfect and where one version works, the other may not.
