Weekend Window-Closing Wrapup, Christmas 2009

by Glenn Hauman · December 27, 2009

And we shall call this Moff’s Law: Of all the varieties of irritating comment out there, the absolute most annoying has to be “Why can’t you just watch the movie for what it is???

E-book pricing from an insider: While some houses like Simon & Schuster and HarperCollins are
experimenting with windowing ebook releases, we’ve tried a more
controversial method. Ebooks are released the same day as the
hardcover, but the pricing is determined by those numbered balls you
see on lottery drawings. If the three balls come up 981, then the ebook
is $9.81. (Or $981, depending on how we’re feeling.)
