Downloadable ebooks -- assuming they can be downloaded from an acceptable source, like a publisher -- can be added to the database. Is that the publisher?
It's for me hard to say I only buy ebooks there. I haven't bought any print-on-demand yet. In my opinion is the platform a kind of both - seller and publisher of selfpublishing-ebooks. But as seller more as a publisher.There are ebooks that were written just for this platform - there are ebooks from other publishers too. As example the ebooks from "ulisses spiele" (germany) are to find there too - they also are to find in the e-shop from ulisses spiele. If I buy an ebook from ulisses I find the ebook in my profile in DriveThruRPG too.
There are ebooks not to find anywhere else because the writers are fans of RPG and they write contents - adventure, (homebrew)rules, etc. for D&D or another RPG stuff. I don't know how to classify.
for some books they seem to be the publisher - with the Dungeon Masters Guild brand https://www.dmsguild.com/browse/pub/8...at least they call themselves that (that logo on the left with "Verlag" above)
in the About us (https://support.drivethrurpg.com/hc/e...) they seem to be a lot of other things to but Dungeon Masters Guild seems to function as publisher.
so, the DriveThrough thing is not a publisher but just something like parent company I guess



Before I try to make a new thread to add new books I want to ask.
I don't know if it is a more information anywhere about the books there. I know only this places to buy the ebooks. A lot of them don't have a ISBN (example: https://www.dmsguild.com/product/2678... ).
May I report this ebooks or should they not to be added?
