"This Is Apple At Its Absolute Worst: It Thinks It Owns Any Book You Make Through iBooks" by Steve Kovach

mattpoststhings:

“In addition to announcing new textbooks for iPad, Apple also released a new free Mac App that lets you create and publish your own books for sale in the iBooks store. It’s called iBooks Author.

It seems like a neat tool. Until you read the user agreement.

Dan Wineman pointed out on his blog that Apple’s End User License Agreement (EULA) states that books made with the iBook Author app and sold through the iBook store can’t be sold anywhere else.

However, if you offer your book for free in the iBooks store, then you can distribute it for free anywhere else you want.”

Oh Apple, you worthless fucks.
