Product Description
neverend books are subscription-based electronic books with social media built in. A "neverend book" is a constantly updated, DRM-free multimedia book you can read on whatever device you have with you. neverend books can have text as well as images, video, audio, links, downloads – whatever enhances the book's subject. On every page you can chat with the author, other readers or your own friends and colleagues. You can share notes, links or highlights with them, too.
Market Opportunity
The IPDF announced eBook sales in June 2009 were up 136% over June 2008, and overall sales in 2009 were 150% more than 2008 sales. There is plenty of room in this space for another electronic publisher, especially one that put the needs and desires of the reader/user first. http://idpf.org/doc_library/industrystats.htm Plenty of room in this space for another electronic publisher, especially one that put the needs and desires of the reader/user first.
