OVERALL OPINION

I use this software for 3 months, there is no other software of its kind on the market.

I discovered by chance, and I find it incredible that anyone in the music does not speak.

This application allows you to create Multi-Touch books enriched with music, video, image galleries, interactive images and 3D objects.

This format is currently only playable on the iPad tablet from Apple brand.

It is a revolution on many levels for all designers and artists:

It can be its own digital book publisher.

It provides the ability to continuously update its books and republish them (validation process two days to release the iBook store).

For the moment only Apple offers such a format for digital books, because of the technological backwardness of all other tablets that merely provide reading book EPUB (no sound no videos text and photos ).

Distribution is global and direct iBookstore with 70% commission to the artist and 30% for Apple, but it is currently impossible to sell on other platforms.

The only requirement for the distribution fee is to get a U.S. tax number (39 euros via the specialized example of the writer Remy Giemza).

What I like: The publish button that provides direct access to the publication on the ibook store from Apple.
(This is like a huge arm to honor any music publishing, I said that I suffered greatly in this environment)

I was surprised to be the first artist in the world to use the media and all the possibilities of this format to publish my works.

This software is free.
