I love this! It makes it a lot easier when I don’t have to go through all these stories and save them myself. The only thing I can think of that could improve upon it, though, would be the ability to download more than one story at a time.

I absolutely love this. I'm in my dorm room and my building doesn't have wireless internet. And my ethernet cord doesn't stretch to my bed. This script is perfect for wanting to relax in bed with some good fan fiction offline. The only thing I would suggest as an improvement would be to make it compatible with mibba.com. But awesome work!

I have added mibba.com to the list of possible future improvements. :-) I'm glad DownloadStory is working well for you!

Very useful. A feature that converted stories into iPod ready text files would be quite handy.

The latest version (1.3) is specially formatted to work with Stanza (http://www.lexcycle.com/stanza), which works excellently on the iPhone / iPod Touch. Thanks for the feedback!

The latest version is specially formatted to view well on Stanza, which is great for reading on the iPod. If you have some other program / formatting in mind, submit some feedback and let me know!
