So, basically the publishers wants us to pay $10 to get a video summary of a book. I assume they are hoping that we will think it is interesting so we will also by the book. Finally, what do I car if I can see the author reading this summary. This could as much easily be audio clips.
I will not be buying any of the advertisements. BOb |

great - so basically cliff's notes go to video
i can't imagine any circumstance where readers would find this a good thing, and although you never know, i can't see why non-readers would want to pay for a book summary. well, except for busy execs who need to show clients they're up to date with modern reading without actually spending the time to read...
