Apple Discontinuing iBooks Author on July 1, Encourages Writers to Transition to Pages - MacRumors

Panzer was tootling around in the Catosphere, when he heard crying and the gnashing of teeth outside the Panzermobile. Following all the noise took our inquisitive kitty to the MacRumors site. There with no digging at all he found a post about Apple's iBooks Author software.

Not the best news of the day.
According to the post by Juli Clover, Apple sent an email to users of the iBooks Author software that the company is discontinuing the software. It will no longer be sold in the app store either. Instead the company wants iBooks Author users to start using Pages. According to the company, many of the iBooks Author features have been added to Pages. Effective July 1 iBook Author is gone.

Panzer says, "It's one of those human things. If people like it and use it, then you have to get rid of it. Then you can make a brighter, prettier, harder to use one and force people to use it."

Free is always good.
Panzer's trip into the Catosphere was a quick one today. Our speedy little kitty stopped in at the Tech Crunch site. Digging around he found a post about Apple's new Apple Books.

According to Kate Clark's post, Apple Books is now live. Apple Books is the Apple iBooks upgrade. All iphones have Apple Books with the installation of the iOS 12 update. The post explains what the new Apple Books looks like on the iphone. As well as what's new at the Apple Book Store, including free books.

Panzer says, "Free ebooks? The new Book Store sounds interesting."
