Horror Mall now offers DRM free Ebooks
One MobileRead member came across this store a few weeks back, and and noticed that Horror Mall offered ebooks. Naturally several members went over to check it out, and it was soon noticed that the format selection as limited- only Kindle and password protected PDFs were offered.
I invited Shane Staley, the proprietor of Horror Mall, to join MobileRead to discuss their current policy. My goal was to encourage them to add more formats. Instead, Shane has decided to drop DRM entirely. Horror Mall will now offer ebooks in PDF, Epub, and Mobipocket. About the Store Horror Mall is a web retailer that specializes in the horror genre. It carries books and ebooks, as well as graphic novels, artwork, music, games, movies, and more. |

That's great, thanks for the heads up. More selection is always appreciated. I think we're going to see a lot more ebook etailers set up shop in the coming months.

Excellent news! I hadn't seen any point in visiting Horror Mall earlier on account of the DRM and lack of formats I could read on my device, but now I'm heading over there to check out their selection.
