Very strange. Perhaps it was a mistake on their part. I originally thought that they were offering several ebooks for free as part of the launch but it looks like it might have been a mistake.

When I initially posted the list I was buying some books via the Connect software using the $50 credit. I noticed that one of the ebooks I was interested in was listed at $0 so I ordered it. It showed up as free when I purchased and downloaded it. Then, operating on the concept that a free ebooks is never a bad idea, I went through their list, found all the $0 ebooks, and purchased them all for free.

It looks like they're going in and fixing all the $0 ebooks they can find now although they might have missed one or two. Sorry looks like free ebooks are no longer free. Guess it was a limited time offer.
