Howard's End Sony freebie

[tech_au]

While checking out whether I wanted to download the current Weird Tales Sony freebie I saw that Howard's End by E.M Forster is also available for free at the moment.
Its listed in the Fiction and Literature section.
You can find it at http://ebookstore.sony.com/ebook/e-m...00000000107585

It's also available in two versions here on MobileRead.

This is my version:

Sony's version, also free - as are all titles here on MobileRead - contains spaces between paragraphs, which personally drives me batty.

All my newer titles have em dashes, by the way, and are single-spaced.

I Actually Prefer the Extra Line Break Between Paragraphs, I find it helps my eyes flow better over the paragraph (so i dont loose my place at all really when they are there where a page full of text and no breaks blinking used to make me reread lines) and gives me a sense of acomplishment at the end of every paragraph(and gives me the second or two i need to think about what i read so i retain text better). it also gives me the Reminder that it is a new paragraph and gives my head the mental pause it needs to register that fact.

That's the correct version for you, then.

You might also try to get as many of the Sony classics priced at $1.99; as many of them (not all), have double spaces. It takes extra work to get rid of those spaces, and Sony seems a little lazy in that regard. Take advantage of their laziness now, before they feel the hit from more competition.

And at manybooks.net. And probably at any of 100 other sites offering public domain downloads.

THANK YOU! to both tech_au and xianfox for the heads up on these freebies. I didn't have the Howard's End, Swashbuckling Fantasy & Full-Blooded Fantasy. Don't know how you found them, but thank you!

I'm just in the process of downloading them now.

I went into the bookstore, picked a category, picked the under $5 selection, and then sorted by price. All the $0s floated to the top.
