Robert, I had a look at the independent authors page today and noticed the billing information only allows the selection of Canada or the US, and after adding books into your cart and wanting to checkout there is no country option there either under "Required Billing Information".
Is the bookstore currently limited to only sales in US/Canada?
Just an idea that cropped into my head too, most ebook stores send newsletters to subscribers listing new books and specials etc (EZRead hasn't as yet but it is early days). Thought that I had (perhaps of some value for discussion) is allow subscribers to select tick boxes of genres they are interested in and receive newsletters about new ebooks and specials in those genres selected.
I'm a big sci-fi fan and currently I receive a few newsletters from ebook sites each week and it lists random books like 5 romance novels, 10 horror, 20 action/thriller etc etc that are new and are on sale, and 99% of those books are of absolute no interest to me (and slowly I am starting to ignore these emails). I'm not sure on other peoples opinions but I sure would love to be able to tick a box to say "only send me info on new sci-fi/fantasy ebooks" or the genres most interested in.
As I said, it is just an idea. Might be of some value, might not be.
