Calibre-Plugin DeACSM
https://github.com/Leseratte10/acsm-cal ... n/releases

Hat nur indirekt mit Calibre zu tun, aber wenn er wie ich Linux verwendet und eine acsm-Datei hat, kann über das Calibre-Plugin (anstelle von ADE = .NET) das epub vom Server herunterladen lassen. Benötigt wird wie bei ADE die eigene Adobe-ID damit der Computer autorisiert wird. Ist daher legal.
