Remove DRM from ebooks you bought with https://github.com/esn/knock

I wish someone would build something like hiring.cafe but for DRM free digital content. One search query => uniform search results with direct link to purchase page on relevant marketplace. Basically just scrape and index every DRM free content marketplace and put it behind a single search interface.

all books are DRM-free if you download them from the right place ;)

Bookshop.org lets you filter by drm when you search.

https://www.bloomsbury.com has drm free stuff, and after https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42811332 i respect them even more.

Also might be worth scanning old mentions of such https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...

The Pragmatic Programmers have always sold DRM free commercial book (to my knowledge).

Having commercial publishers that will sell you high quality books without DRM is brilliant and I'll always support that.

> DRM-free classics that are out of copyright.

I started down this road with a few books about two years ago, and I have so many now on my list to read that I hardly ever get to reading a modern book.

I read a lot from Standard Ebooks. But one thing to keep in mind with them- they do edit the books to make changes for readability. Not necessarily a big deal, but something to know.

All of Cory Doctorow books are DRM free.

I don't see any mention here of books sold by Tor. All their books are DRM-free.

Useful list. I wish more book stores made DRM status obvious before checkout.

So this is a similar idea to Project Gutenberg?

So after seeing this project on the front page of hackernews. I decided to add my EPUB reader on a submission as well[0]: https://epub.mirror.forum

and although I already previously had the idea of showing books from gutenberg but your idea made me find more importance in it and I ended up doing so in two different implementations: https://guten.mirror.forum and https://gutencf.mirror.forum, so I thank you for that!

[Offtopic: I am/was also surprised to see that there is a lack of API or platforms if suppose I created this app and I wanted to give users genuine ways to pay. Aside from the walled gardens of Kindle or specific apps, I am unable to give my users a way to just search books, pay for them and download it (atleast to my understanding at the moment) which is a sad thing :-( ]

I hope people are able to give love to my submission at [0] / the link down below. Cheers and take care and have a nice day if a real human is being out there reading this :-D

Hope you like or enjoy it and find it useful!

Nice. Good to know that Tor books are DRM-free.
