meccabooks Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I am trying to create a Kindle style app, which will be connected to my bookstore, where I will be selling ebooks. Customer will be able to purchase the ebook on my website, and be able access it through my app. 1- I want to know what kind of things (Security wise) I should be worried about, so people can not have access to any of the files on my website. 2- I don't want to provide a download link the way it is provided now. 3- Is there a way that once a person logins to my app, they will be able to see all thier e-books purchases.

Dh42 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Check into adobe pdf server. Last time I looked at it they quoted me like 60k though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meccabooks Posted October 9, 2012 Author Share Posted October 9, 2012 I don't want to use PDF files, I will be using ePub / indesign format. Keep it very close to iBookstore and kindle books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dh42 Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Using their software to make the ebooks is a good idea, but it really needs to be served from their platform. Using any 3rd party solution you are going to lose the drm. Go without drm, you can still make great money, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meccabooks Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 Is there any other software beside adobe, or opensource solution, where I am able to use DRM and control the number of downloads/ devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjamin utterback Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Hello meccabooks, to control the number of devices, you would need a drm. You can read about "open-soure" drm's at this link . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
