I guess that's exactly what people find strange about your decision.  Your
Rebel books could be used by Rebel, your Chess Tiger books could be
used by Chess Tiger, while your Rybka book cannot be used by Rybka.
It can only be used by buying another chess program sold by a
different company.  This looks completely absurd to me.

Not that I care much, really.  I very rarely use opening books, and
being a non-Windows I cannot use Rybka anyway.  I understand why
people are surprised and disappointed, though.
