This will only download the books that are marked as "owned" on the account, whether they were purchased or from a daily free offer.

Alright, it would be great if that feature will also be added .

Unfortunately that's not something I'm able to do. The API requires that the books have to marked as "owned" by the account, and with a subscription you're just paying for access to the books, rather than ownership of the books.
