I just noticed an advert in the adsense I use on my site that is offering 12,000+ ebooks on a DVD for £14.95. So I thought I’d take a look at the site. The image they use to show the DVD you are buying is obviously just a Lightscribe DVD they have burnt the books on to. A quick look at the ebooks they are charging you £14.95 shows that they are all in fact ebooks that are available to download for free anyway from sites such as Project Gutenberg. So apart from about £1 they paid for the blank DVD and then about £0.50 it would cost them to post it that’s about £13 profit in their pocket because of gullible people. A search on Ebay shows me that they are also trying to sell the same DVD on there as well.
If you want free ebooks then check out my previous post which contains links to sites offering both classic and new works for you to download for free.

They used to have things like that on ebay quite a bit. I’ve also seen some overseas sites selling cd’s with whatever you want on them for cheap..
