- I have installed and uninstalled Calibre several times over the past few weeks. I just don't like the interface and I don't need the conversion feature. I also don't like the fact that it copies the books into its own directory.

See all 16 Comments >>Luckily, I found the Books app to use instead. http://books.aetherial.net/
This is more like iTunes for books to me. I use it only for my eBooks. There is a section in the book data to add the file, so to read the book I just browse the catalogue, then load the file directly. And, the files aren't copied to a new directory. Books just points to them. Finally, Books is smart enough to load the appropriate reader for the book I've selected.
I absolutely prefer the Books app over Calibre.
