Oprah Offers Free Download
A lot of yesterday’s extra stories in Lunch Deluxe covered various thoughts on profiting from “free” from four different vantage points, and now Oprah Winfrey is changing that experimental landscape even further. She announced on today’s show that a free downloadable version of Suze Orman’s bestselling book WOMEN & MONEY (published a year ago by Spiegel & Grau) is available at http://www.oprah.com/ today and tomorrow through 5 pm Pacific time only.
The PDF file is offered in both English and Spanish versions, and the site includes this message: “This book is copyrighted. You may view and download the file, but you may not copy the file or share or forward it to any other person.”
Orman was featured on today’s show, helping out a family in financial crisis.
The publisher notes “this represents the first time Ms. Winfrey has offered an entire book for free to her viewing audience.”
