Baen Monthly Bundles changes.
From Baen Bar:
Quote:
It’s been so long ago, I’m not even sure when they diverged, but it’s time we reconciled ebook release dates and print book release dates. The tech support people are ready to make it happen, so this message is going out next newsletter, and we’ll be updating the FAQs. Can my Administrivia regulars think of anything else that needs to be done to make the transition as painless as possible?--Toni

Dear Baen Readers,

In our continuing efforts to make access to our books easier, we are reconciling the release dates of ebooks and paper books. From the publication month of April 2016 onward, the release dates will be the same (that is, the ebooks will not be available two weeks earlier than the paper books).

We will not be changing the time the Monthly Bundles are initially offered for sale, and all other policies regarding ebook bundles will remain in place. We will not be making the period you can buy Monthly Bundles shorter, but longer. The April 2016 bundle contains the ebooks that will be available in print on April 5th. The final versions of these ebooks would have been scheduled to go live as ebooks on all retail venues on March 16, 2015, and will now be available in their entirety April 5, 2016. At that point, the Monthly Bundle will become unavailable for sale.

We will continue to publish two newsletters per month, one highlighting the print books in advance of the release date, the other highlighting ebook and website offerings on the release date.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns, and our whole team will be happy to help.

Good reading!

Toni Weisskopf
Publisher, Baen Books
