Amazon Launches E-Book Lending for Libraries
This is the VOA Special English Technology Report, from voaspecialenglish.com | http Amazon.com recently launched its Kindle library-lending service in the United States. Millions of users of the Kindle reader and app can now borrow Kindle books from their local public library. The company is working with OverDrive, a leading supplier of e-books and other digital content to libraries. The service will be available through the websites of more than eleven thousand local libraries across the country. Users of other devices including the Barnes and Noble Nook and Sony Reader have already been able to borrow library books. Experts say Amazon's entry is likely to reopen a debate between publishers and libraries over e-book lending. Bill Rosenblatt is president of Giant Steps Media Technology Strategies, a consulting company. He says "Publishers and libraries are enemies that occur in nature like snakes and mongeese. Libraries would like to be able to make books available to everyone, all the time, with no limitations. And publishers, of course, would like to sell more books to the public." Mr. Rosenblatt says the debate in the United States centers on what is known as the law of first sale. "Once you buy any kind of media product such as a book or a CD or a DVD or anything like that, you can do whatever you want with it. You can read it, you can give it away, you can lend it, you can resell it, you can burn it, you can use it as a Frisbee -- whatever you want." This law of <b>...</b>

New Book: "Atomic Cover-Up: Two US Soldiers, Hiroshima & Nagasaki"
To ORDER BOOK or E-BOOK editions, or read more: gregmitchellwriter.blogspot.com In my latest book (print or e-book) "Atomic Cover-Up: Two US Soldiers, Hiroshima & Nagasaki, and The Greatest Movie Never Made," I probe a turning point in US history: the suppression of film footage, for decades, shot by a US Army unit in the atomic cities -- a wrong turn with staggering consequences even today. This is a detective story, a profile of two remarkable military officers, and one of the last little-told stories of World War II. The cover-up even extended to MGM and Hollywood--and to President Truman. And there was no WikiLeaks to get the film aired. To ORDER BOOK at $9.95 gregmitchellwriter.blogspot.com Or E-book version just $3.99 (for Kindle, all phones, iPads, Blackberry, PCs) at Amazon here: amzn.to You do NOT need a KIndle. My email: epic1934@aol.com As co-author of the classic "Hiroshima in America" and eleven other books, I've written about elements of this story for leading newspapers and magazines, but now I tell the full saga here, based on new research -- from the Truman Library to Nagasaki. Praise for my "Hiroshima in America" book: "A great book" -- Los Angeles Times. "Compelling reading." -- The New York Times. "Excellent." -- The Washington Post. All front page reviews. The new book opens this way: "This is the story of twenty hours of film footage, blazing with color, shot in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in early 1946 by a US military crew, that would change the lives <b>...</b>

Onda VK30 eBook Reader Review
is.gd if you want one of these... Fancy reading some eBooks in LIVING COLOUR? Well this device claims to allow you to do just that! And it does. Pretty much. This jolly eBook reader lets you listen to music, watch videos, read books and even play with a little piano. But is it actually competent at any of these tasks? I won't spoil it for you, but you know how these things usually go down... At least it comes with its own screen protector and USB cable. And a nice box which opens up like a book. View more game reviews and hilarious* stuff @ www.youtube.com (*Due to the subjective nature of humour, hilarity cannot be guaranteed. Your home is at risk if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or other loan secured on it.)
