This is free software for producing books specifically for the iBooks application. Apple are (very reasonably, to my mind) saying that if you choose to sell the resulting book, you must do so via the iBookstore. If you wish to give it away, you can freely do so.
Really, what's all the fuss about?

Let's imagine Adobe & Microsoft creating their own book stores, distributing publishing software for free, but only with exclusive rights to sell the books on their own store, charging 30% on each book. Still don't see a problem?

Similarly, if you export your file in another format, such as PDF, you can do whatever you wish with that.

Nope. If you used mentioned software to create it, you have to sell it exclusively via apple's store.
