| 5. Why pay? Won't I be able to download free copies of this e-book from other web sites, like I used to download free music from Napster? | |
| The Napster experience has taught authors and artists to copy-protect their digital property before releasing it on the web. Each released copy of The Body Fat E-Guide is encoded using the latest encryption technology, allowing it to be registered online and opened on only one computer at a time. | Copying and trying to open the e-book on another computer will not work unless it is first registered online to that computer. Besides copyright protecting the author's valuable information, this new technology protects your investment from software piracy! |

of The Body Fat Guide as e-books. Each format has its advantages. If
you want useful weight-management information delivered to you as fast as possible, then order the e-book. The e-book downloads in about 30 seconds with a cable connection. |
