Wiley & O’Reilly To Offer DRM-Free E-books, PressReader for Windows 8 Released

Wiley is behind many must-read books. A ton of their titles are available for purchase in stores. Thanks to the recent partnership between Wiley & O’Reilly, Wiley titles will be available through O’Reilly Media in a DRM-free format.

We are excited to share our technology titles with the O’Reilly community, which includes many leaders and innovators in that industry … Wiley is focused on offering products and services that enable our customers to be effective and successful in their professional lives. Our relationship with O’Reilly will broaden Wiley’s reach to the professional technology community.

explained Peter Balis, Director of Digital Business Development at Wiley. Even though these titles will be available through O’Reilly Media at this point, it is nice to see more publishers support DRM-free publishing. Let’s hope more publishers join this party.
