bookhitch.com provides alternative for industry controversy; authors and publishers are given search capability for books, maintain the rights and consumers can buy directly from their site. PR9.NET August 25, 2006 - NEW YORK: Over the last few months there has been a new "gold rush" to place books on the Internet. However, the rights of authors are being trampled in the stampede. The dash to place books on the Web is causing concern about protecting the rights of authors and their books, and the effect on the industry as a whole. Internet companies are sprouting up left, right, and center to cater to the needs of large publishers making the digital transition, but did anyone ask the authors what they want? After all, without authors there would not be any publishers… Why not let the authors choose what to do with their work versus having to "opt in" or "opt out" of many of these sites? Countless authors are actively involved with their books and their publishing companies, working together to market their books rather than taking the sit back and watch the profits role in mentality. Authors and publishers are listing their books with bookhitch.com, a website which gives them the searching capability for their books and website, for free. bookhitch is the solution to many of the problems being faced within the book industry especially does not face any copyright controversy. Authors can chose whether they want to put a book excerpt on their own site for potential buyers to read, maintaining their rights without any hassle. By listing their book and link to their site on bookhitch, readers can find it, link to their website, and read part of the book…if they choose to put it on there. No opting in, or out, or any kind of hassle. bookhitch is a very simple resolution for much of the conflict within the industry. bookhitch.com has the aim to list every book ever published, but is going about it in a manner that is most beneficial to authors and publishers. This differential approach sets the site apart from the rest and away from any arguments within the industry.
