I can add it to my list but it will be a while. The Odyssey took me longer than any other eBook to encode because of all the footnotes, 180+ if I remeber correctly.

bryus, will u do Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter? I still can't find any ebook of those, esp Lord of the Rings. I don't mind paying a few dollars for Lord of the Rings ebooks.

These are both copyrighted works. You can only make available material that is in the public domain.

Sorry, as mikegehl said, they are not available in eBook format because the publisher/copyright holder have not released the electronic publishing rights to these series. I would love to have them in eBook format also, however, I don't expect them any time soon.

I saw Harry Potter BREIFLY on Palmgear I believe -- pulled off within a day. But I didn't download it because I knew it was illegal.

And some foreign sites with have some books that are legally public domain outside the USA - but still covered by copyright within the borders. Downloading them could be a crime --- So let the downloader beware... :rolleyes:
