"Awful, horrible, garbage."
April 26, 2014
|
By HTRC
Version: Adobe Digital Editions 2.0
Pros
Sometimes you can actually read and move to another page - amazing!!!
Cons
Complete garbage ware. Either this was developed by chimpanzees, or they purposely set out to design the world's worst e-reader software.
Summary
It's so bad, you should actually consider not buying or reading a particular book if it's available only in Adobe Digital Editions.

"Garbage - Worse than useless."
May 02, 2013
|
By jjhardesty
Version: Adobe Digital Editions 2.0
Pros
Installing and then deleting gives you something to do
Cons
Buggy, refuses to open ASCM files
Summary
Version 1.7 was OK, not the greatest, not user friendly, difficult to use initially, but it shines when compared to version 2.0. This latest version offers nothing to recommend it. Never opened an ascm file for me: error messages say my device is 'not registered' (when I've been using it with v1.7 for about 2 years) or there is a missing or corrupt file, when my procedure was the same as it had been with the earlier version. Always some reason why it is unable to do the job it was supposed to do. Atotal waste.

"Major flaw:Broken for more than one user on a computer"
January 19, 2013
|
By MarkTwainWasRight
Version: Adobe Digital Editions 2.0
Pros
Looks nice.
Cons
Not very robust.
Summary
If you have multiple users on the same computer, ADE will not recognize plugged in eBook readers; eBook bookshelves disappear. (no permutation of plugging and restarting the program fixes this.)

By 7LaVerne
Version: Adobe Digital Editions 2.0
Pros
None that justify using this program rather than Calibre.
Cons
Customizable options are few. NG for PDF.

Following another posting's recommendation, I tried Calibre. Infinitely superior.

"A good epub reader but still no good for pdf"
October 17, 2012
|
By Bubbecus
Version: Adobe Digital Editions 2.0
Pros
I like the new theme. For epub there is good flipping of the 'view' pages.
Cons
Even the manual is in epub and not pdf. Shame adobe!!
Even the C-Net screen view is out of date
Summary
May as well stay with Calibre.

C-Net. Can't even select the version (2) for this review.
