Keep us posted if you contact Constellation. I'll be especially interested in knowing if you have no choice but to use DRM. I checked out your site, and it's clear you're doing books of the kind that people will want to own for real. Thanks, David You’re very welcome, Mike. Keep us posted if you contact Constellation.

I've been looking for ways to expand our ebook list since Amazon quit carrying our PDF books. This might be a option, particularly since it involves Lightning Source. And thanks too for the plug for social DRM. I've talked to staff at Adobe who say that their support for more intrusive DRM schemes is being driven by the demands of large publishers. The market needs to realize that there are publishers who don't want to burden their customers with DRM hassles. --Mike Perry, Inkling Books, Seattle Many, many thanks for the links.
