What's so trash about it? It's pretty much html in a zip file.

Most windows users don't read, even fewer read digitally, even fewer than that would read on a desktop/ laptop, even fewer than that would pay for software to do so.

What are your requirements?
Personally I've found Freda to satisfy all my needs for a READER, and Calibre for everything else eBook related (e.g. uploading onto a hardware reader).
Matthew King
Calibre is a fine viewer. I'm more annoyed at the complete trash quality of most epub and mobi versions of books out there. Spelling errors out the ass, low quality pictures if there are any, and text layout generally fucked up.
Grayson Diaz
This. Book piracy shouldn't be as hard ads it apparently is.

Fuck off with your Windows Botnet Edition

Edge actually has quite a decent EPUB reader built-in. It's the default eBook reader on Windows 10.
Joseph King
Just gave it a shot and it's not bad. Definitely far better than Adobe Digital Editions but the font rendering hurts my eyes for some reason.
Luis Baker
Because most of those books are scanned, OCR'd and then put online. Think of how little there would be available if people actually had to edit them too. Yes it's trash but it's miles better than nothing.
Kevin Nelson
Versus what? MOBI? EPUB is the patrician format to view e-books.
Landon Reed
Just think of the hours of autism that piracy groups put into anime, music and film piracy. Even more so with the groups that spend months cracking video games. It all results in pirated versions being a far better experience than the retail product most of the time. It's pretty clear that almost nobody gives a fuck about ebooks.
John Reed
Well there's this
pgdp.net
Also the OCR stuff only really applies to older books, anything that's released nowadays will have an official ebook and then it's just a matter of stripping the DRM and putting it online.
