John Wiley & Sons, a leading publisher of technology books, said Apple Computer has removed all its titles from the shelves of Apple stores in apparent retaliation for the upcoming publication of a biography of Apple CEO Steve Jobs.
Of course, “retaliation” is probably a better word in this case. Apple is removing all Wiley books, including those by other authors, in a rather transparent attempt to spike the book. Sounds like something Microsoft would do.
So yeah Mac fanatics, root for your Apple if that makes you feel good. Apple has right to do that. But consider this: if this had been Bill Gates and M$ instead of Steve Jobs and Apple, what would you think?
The article points out that it may cause more sales since it’s got this “dirt” PR from Apple. In the other word, Apple is giving the book free publicity. Nice!
