EBook distribution idea. This is one of the many ways to increase the number of ebooks sold, especially for .lit format. The distributor actually should package the ebook with the printed ebook. To buy the ebook version w/o printed will cost 10-15% less. But when people buy the printed book they will get free ebook.
This is the chronology of getting ebook with the purchase of printed book (based on scenario that Microsoft have working relationship with the book distributor):
1. Every printed book has unique serial numbers.
2. Buyer should have account with Microsoft Reader ebook download center; by opening an account with credit cards registration (without being charged, just for to confirm real identity).
3. After log in MS ebook download center, the buyer enters the serial number from the printed book.
4. Then MS will specifically insert the user ID/Email into the cover of the ebook, which can't be modified. This is to trace if the copy had been spread illegally. So no need DRM (copy protection).
5. The ebook will be ready to be downloaded or sent via email.
