Le site forgottenbooks.com est-il sûr ?

Why a good site: well it promised good, out of print book that is free for download, with no malware or viruses But The unethical side: After you downloaded the book and open it, you will notice that the book has being delete off some of the pages randomly and if you want to read these pages, you need to PAY! There are some other sites that will offer the same book in good condition for free, such as *****

They basically sell books already in public domain and freely available in the Internet. In another words, some sites (like archive.org) spend money digitizing books and giving them for free; and this site mutilate these books (deleting pages) in order to make you pay for the whole book. It's not illegal, of course. Just unethical.

My personal experience with this site and the books they offer has only been good. They offer cheap editions of otherwise out of print books, and the process they use to reproduce them is quite good. I've been on the website and downloaded a few books. Always had a good experience with them, no viruses or shady goings-on.
