All you have is an image? I prove you that the word compromise would fit on  
my sentence. Beat you with your own reference dictionary. And all you have is  
an image!

You are joking right?
Are you not spanish? I'll wait for the confirmation or negation.
Apparently you are the type of person that only sees what you want to see...
I don't have to give you another dicctionary let's only use your reference.  
In the same page that you gave, a little more above:
->"a. To expose or make liable to danger, suspicion, or disrepute: a secret  
mission that was compromised and had to be abandoned."

Why such an hurry to judge? Clam down, maybe the other have some point!
Admit: you are jealous of my English, it's a fact. Maybe I'll explain you  
why!

cheers

> always correcting me

no. I correct people when they are wrong, I expect them and wish they they do  
the same when I am wrong. You are not **always** wrong.


>always playing the clever one!

Thank you.

Personally, I think non-functional data (books which aren't manuals,
as a short example) should be at least shareable and of course,
readable/usable. The rest is up to the copyright holders and authors to
decide what to allow or deny.

I don't mind having to pay for the types of books described above if
they do respect the criteria I described above.

->So you can see how I don't in the slightest feel "compromised" (did you  
mean "shy"?)
hay hay superTramp always correcting me, always suggesting words, always  
playing the clever one!

Compromise = comprometido (I believe in castelhano eres lo mismo!)
It that so cryptic? No, it so straightforward, so easy to understand... hay  
hay...

But that link is so great, that I'll give you a pass on that one. :p

Knowledge, that is books, should be free (free as in gratis). Sure, those who  
write them should be able to live a decent life out of writing them and we  
should find a solution for this (it is my personal opinion that the State  
should pay the writers). So you can see how I don't in the slightest feel  
"compromised" (did you mean "shy"?) to share any relevant link where you can  
get them for free. There are many. The largest database I know of is:

I am a little bit antiquate I confess. I usually read my pdf books with a pdf  
reader, evince in the moment. I believe the next logical question for me to  
make is:
it's better to read a book in pdf or in epub? There is any  
quality-significant  difference between the two? And If I want to download  
epubs where I could find them? don't answer if you feel compromised in any  
way... you could e-mail me I suppose, for the sake of anonymity.
Best regards

calibre for epubs and evince for pdf's. I like epubs better because the text  
is rendered relatively to page (viewer) size and not just staticly on the  
page.
