Very interesting. I wonder if they will offer self-publishing tools as well.

I do like this bit :

I would have been surprised if Sony didn't reserve the right to not publish an ebook. For example, they have to be careful about libel. Sony is the one with the deep pockets, not the libelling author.

That's not why I made my comment. I think it will cut down on the number of cheap porn titles that for a time proliferated in the Amazon catalog (looks like most of them have been cleaned out now). I found Amazon's agreement but haven't read through it yet to see if they have similar wording. That's why I said I liked that bit.
