  Thanks for the tip.

eBook Formats: EPUB, MOBI, PDF
Up to 5 downloads of each format per order - handy when changing devices, to give away, or if file is lost.

So not using a dummy email means you can easily access files another time from the confirmation email, just don't sign up for marketing if not interested. I enjoy the regular travel tips & generally ignore the sales emails.

The chapters & file size. You can also download individual chapters.

How to Survive Anything -

An Earthquake to Losing Your Hair (5.18MB)

A Border Crossing to a Job Interview (6.634MB)

A Wardrobe Malfunction to Locking Yourself Out of Your Hotel Room Naked (4.71MB)

A Zombie Attack to a Messy Divorce (5.642MB)

Being Interviewed on Live TV to a Jellyfish Sting (5.334MB)

A Trip to the Opera to a Digital Detox (6.883MB)

Tick off the ones you've survived.

  I downloaded PDF on Wi-Fi at a Westfield. Tried to open - download failed. Tried to download again - all 5 downloads were used up in failed download😠
  
  But still can download in different format, or individual chapters in PDF format, or sign up for another copy.

Someone can simply put a google drive or Dropbox link that would really help.

How do you unreport something?
- ModeratorJSQUARED on 08/10/2016 - 16:33
  
  You can't cancel a report but you can let moderators know in the Talk with a Moderator forum to disregard your report. Anyhow since I've seen your comment now, you won't need to do that on this occasion.

I was just testing how insecure the website is. I can't believe a 32 character string is all you need to steal a download! Though at least I don't think they share associated contact details.
- retiredfeline on 08/10/2016 - 17:32
  
  They've decided to give it away, but just want to collect as many email addresses as possible for marketing purposes.
  - peterpeterpumpkin on 08/10/2016 - 17:37
    
    Yeah, but it seems they always use the same insecure non-authenticated URLs for downloads - even for non-free purchases. I don't want to buy an eBook to test my assumption :)
- brotherfranciz on 08/10/2016 - 17:40
  
  Thanks, got the pdf from your third link.
- Providence on 08/10/2016 - 20:30
  
  Very interesting but how did you generate the (seemingly) random 32 character link?
  - peterpeterpumpkin on 08/10/2016 - 20:47
    
    I didn't. These were just manual purchases.
    
    Although you have a one in a zillion chance of guessing the download id it's just very unusual. Not only does the site not require a secure HTTPS connection but the direct download URL will show up in the browser history with no authentication needed (even if it was secure).

Thanks OP.

Want to send & convert to my Kindle. File too big though (must be < 25mb) . Any suggestion everyone?
- Unictu on 08/10/2016 - 22:02
  
  Found one solution: we can download the chapters as separated files.

  I connected my Kindle to my PC by USB cable, wrote the file into its storage and it was recognised.
