San Fransisco-based No Starch Press has started experimenting with giving away their books for free on BitTorrent via The Pirate Bay.
San Fransisco-based book publisher No Starch Press, which proclaims to publish only the "finest in geek entertainment," has announced in a new blog posting that it's "giving books away" for free on BitTorrent.
Today they have seeded two of the popular titles that they publish, “Cult of Mac” (torrent) and “Cult of iPod” (torrent), both by Leander Kahney of Wired.com. No Starch Press founder William Pollock has posted about why he’s testing out this unique form of book distribution.
