To me this all looks like a way to force students to buy iPads and Macs. I don't see any benefit to students. Surely they will still have to purchase regular textbooks for many of their classes.
I wonder if this means that you can actually read iBooks content on Macs now. So far, you've had to have an iOS device. People with Macs, but no iOS devices, couldn't read books bought via iBooks.
