"You're really getting a much nicer book experience… it's a gorgeous program." - Leo Laporte, MacBreak Weekly
(1/01/09, Note from the creators): It's hard to believe it's only been two swift months since our initial release! So far, over 100,000 happy customers and buzz from sites like Macworld, Ars Technica, MacRumors, TUAW and Wired's Cult of Mac have helped Classics become the #1 selling app for two straight months in the books category of the App Store. A huge thanks for your continued support, and look for more frequent content updates over the near future. :)
