iBook Store Features Leave Indie Publishers Behind

jfruhlinger writes "Apple has introduced some new features to its iBooks store in order to make illustrations and fixed layouts possible — something particularly important for children's books.

    That isn't a counter argument, it is suppression. They wish to prevent my point of view from being heard.
