"I'm not sure. It doesn't open my LIT files"
Version: ABC Amber LIT Converter 2.08
Pros
It doesn't open my LIT flies
Cons
It doesn't open my LIT flies
Summary
Doesn't work. I have several CNET Download Alerts and most of them I've already downloaded. A couple I thought didn't download when I got the Alert & downloaded again. Skype updated and quit working. The upgrade is BAD. I un-installed, and re-installed several times, and Skype always shut down when I tried to use it. The next morning I downloaded an older version and it works fine. Some times the upgrade really screws things up.
AND. I KEEP GETTING ALERTS I'VE ALREADY DOWNLOADED (I CHECKED AND THEY ARE DOWNLOADED. ONE THAT KEEPS COMING IS THE TORRENT UPGRADE. CAN YOU STOP THESE REPEAT ALERTS? IT'S VERY ANNOYING AND I HAVE TO KEEP CHECKING EVERY ONE TO MAKE SURE IT IS A NEW ALERT AND NOT A REPEAT. THANKS -

"Definitely does what it says it will do."
Version: ABC Amber LIT Converter 2.08
Pros
Small file size
Very easy to use
A lot of conversion options
Batch conversion
Drag and drop
Very fast
FreeCons
Looks and feels dated
Would be nice to have some of the more current file types as options
Broken download link at Process Text's website (possibly not maintained)Summary
Quick and dirty conversion. I use it to get .lit files onto my Kindle. It does what it says it will do with frills and the bloat that some other programs have. That being said, it does feel a bit dated even though it worked on my Windows 7 64-bit machine without a hitch. All in all a great program that does the job better than anything else out there.

"Annoying "Created by ABCLIT" on every page"
Version: ABC Amber LIT Converter 2.08
Pros
It's free, but there's much better free stuff out there. I have nothing else good to say.
Cons
Puts a VERY annoying "Created by" message on each page. This really sucks if you're using it on an Ereader.
Summary
Try something else. If I recommended something you'd think this was a shill review, so I won't. Just get yourself something different.

"A converter for an old eBooks format from Microsoft"
