You have a PM .. :)

"torrents" are basically a "folder" for downloading data. Very simple to do but most, although not all, breach copyright, so we can't talk about them here .. :)

Install that on your pc and it will convert more or less any ebook to a format your kindle will read.
You can even set it up so you can browse your library over wifi from the kindle and download books.
