as stated earlier if the programme works well I probably would purchase it.
Blessings!

Hi,
I think its not fair to compare Quitter, which is absolutely free, and a pay
software like QRead itself.
As some of the listers already said, Quitter, is free, and as most of us know,
free software got develop from the developer's passion and their voluntry time.
They can commit as much as
Hi.
I have been using ibooks on the mac and it’s ok to read with. Yes you have to
go to the next chapter but for me that’s fine because if I should happen to
doze off then I haven’t missed much.

Hi all.
You can't blame a guy for dumping a project that was free. if it
happened to QRead itself, or Hope, you'd have a valid point, but for
things that are free, it essentially means you support it out of your
own free time.
This seems like a good Kickstarter campaign to me. Since I purchased
Hi.
from what I’m reading you would still need ibooks to read an ibook and still
would be unable to read kindle books on the mac. Bookshare would be it’s only
advantage and maybe pdf?

Okay just to be clear on this. I am not asking anyone who has already purchased
this program for Windows to purchase it again, if fact this is one of the
reasons why I would like to get this project completed because Christopher the
developer says that he would have a model in which if you
Not true. There are thousands of free ePub books available on the Internet if
you are willing to just look for them, and those of us who self publish our own
writings usually create drm free eBooks that can be read with such a program.
I am not saying that Q-Read for the Mac will be the only

Hi. I was meaning that if you want to read an actual ibook you purchased on
the mac, or a kindle book you couldn’t do that with this app. Still if it reads
pdf’s and bookshare books well and with the free epub book available online it
might be a worth while investment. Would still love to be
I agree that the ability to read Kindle books and iBooks on the Mac would be
great and I know technically we can read iBooks on the Mac but until Apple
improves the accessibility of it I do not consider it a real option for us. At
least for Kindle content we do now have good access to these on
Hello everyone,
I hope that you all had a great Thanksgiving holiday and that now that we are
all back to reality with work and all of the other things that we do on a daily

of mine.
I recently learned of an
Especially from a developer who's history is of abandoning software when his
users start to ask questions regarding software bugs or features that he
feels aren't important or worth his time.
And I agree with Tyler. $30 is a lot to commit to for something when it
doesn't exist.
But
What will be the advantage for this so call accessible ebook reader compare
to say iBooks and such?
It will still going to have the problem of not able to read DRM protected

it doesn't matter is $3 $30 or $300, whey reinvent something why such similar

I think I’d have to have a lot more information before I decide to commit. For
example, what books does it access. which formats. What are its advantages over
other readers? It sounds like a good thing in principle, but what is it in
practice?

It's a book/file reader. It handles epub, daisy, pdf, and other formats, and
can save your place automatically when you close a book. It has other features
as well, but I'm not a user of the program so can't enumerate them.
Yes, Qwitter was quite a big deal, but as I recall there were problems
All great points, I will get that information and put it on the list tomorrow.

Again, all great points and thank you for putting the information up about the
different formats. I agree, we should not simply dismiss the potential of this
program just because we may not agree with things that the developer has done
previously. Having said this I would hope that people would
I have a few points here.
First, my message was not an attack on Q or his software. I used qwitter
and while it was around it was useful. It had a lot of issues and rather
than rewrite it, it was abandoned for better horizons. Whether or not
you agree with this is sort of irrelivant as it

one thing that a lot of people either don't realize or are ignorant of: you
cannot place demands on developer of free software. SInce they are not being
paid for their efforts, it ceases being worth their time to deal with the
stresses involved. However, a paid developer is beholden to his work
