Beware, your work is not yours. Free is never free. You give Apple all syndication rights to the content you develop in iBooks Author.

The title’s a bit misleading. In layman’s terms: If you use iBooks Author, the book you create with iBooks Author can only be sold through the iBooks store.

Not a terrible trade-off for a well-designed, easy to use, free piece of software.
