You can’t take VLC with you when on a trip. I don’t read books on the iPhone

I realize that you don't care for iTunes, but once the book is in m4a or m4b

What's happening here is that the authentication layer, which is invisible to

to replicate it and read a complete page with no interruptions.
Second, do not wait for someone else to report a problem. The more
