Amazon Book Upgrades

Hey!  Did you know that you can “upgrade” a book at Amazon?  I just purchased a book, and it gave me the option to upgrade to also own a digital version that is hosted by Amazon.  For only $3.99, I can access the full book text, take notes, annotate, copy and paste, etc. on anything in the book.  Even better, I can access it from any internet connected browser. 

Not all books are available, but they give you a list of stuff you’ve bought in the past that you can upgrade.  Pretty cool…

Hey that’s pretty cool! Especially for Maya books :-)

Okay that’s cool and all but how do you FIND it on your account?

Go to “Your Account” and then Click “View Your Media Library”.

Books that are available for upgrade will have the “Upgrade” button on the side.

Or, you can just try this link:

Ok, being able to rent/buy movies to my TIVO just about blew my noggin, but this pretty cleanly beats that.

Now, if Amazon combined with Google….
