Once Upon A Time
Long ago, I bought an ebook on speed reading.

It was OK. I learned a few things and was generally happy with the purchase.

However, one thing really irked me.

After I bought the ebook, I had to wait 48 hours until the owner of the ebook emailed me with information on downloading it.

Even worse, the download link was a generic HTML page with the link in plain sight. If I wanted, I could have emailed the link to everyone on my contact list. (Or even posted it on my blog here.)

I wonder how many people did that?

It's like paying to see a movie at a theatre and then finding out that there's a huge, unguarded door in the back and you're the only one in your row who actually paid to see the film.

Ouch.

That's why I'm pleased to announce that for Art of Otaku, we've licensed a very sophisticated digital delivery system.

Once you purchase the guide, you're given a special download URL right then and there. No waiting.

You'll be given 48 hours to download the guide (with a few download attempts allowed). After that, your link expires.

You're now in a theatre where everyone has paid for their ticket.

Cost-wise, it probably didn't make sense for us to have this delivery system. ..

But we won't ever let you be the sucker.
