Immediately after each session of general conference, videos and other information is posted in the general conference section of LDS.org. As you access these pages, you will notice that they have been redesigned to make it easier to access the text, video, and audio versions of conference talks.
This updated design is available now in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. 70 more languages will become available over the coming months.
Updated Talks Selection
The conference talks now appear visually with the speaker’s picture next to the title for easier selection. The talks are grouped by session.
Grouped Actions
The various actions (listen, download, print, share, and watch) are now conveniently located at the top of each talk.
To access these same actions for an entire session, click the three dots that appear to the right of the session name:
And the options will appear to listen, watch, or download the entire session:

AWESOME!!! Thanks for your great work.
Somewhat off topic, but not entirely: as a 5th gen Kindle owner, I have done a fair amount of downloading from the church website, but the Kindle doesn’t do a terrific job of displaying Adobe .pdf files; my Kindle will go into a non-voluntary reset more often than not while attempting to read a .pdf file. Furthermore, depending on how they’re built, they may or may not be searchable, and so when a .pdf file is the only downloadable format available, I occasionally decide I’ll either just cut and paste the text on my desktop PC’s screen into a simple .txt file which I can easily load to my Kindle, or if it’s a large document (such as Teachings of the President), I just won’t bother at all. More .mobi and/or non-.pdf formats, please!
Me too, Mark.
I occasionally click feedback on LDS.org to request that they continue releasing conference in ebook (mobi or ePub) formats. I’ve never had a response. I miss bringing conference along on my kindle. I’m less distraction-prone with a kindle than a phone or tablet. Newer kindles are a little better with PDFs, but it’s still difficult to read.
Dave,
As you have noted, we discontinued creating EPUB files of general conference after the April 2015 conference. Not many people were using the EPUB files and it was a complicated process to create them.
If you have a Kindle Fire, the best way to read and watch conference is to get the Gospel Library mobile app (see link at mobile.lds.org).
