VirtualDub - Free Ebook

I''ve been fascinated by the "print to order" book publishing business.  The urge to publish used to support the whole vanity publishing industry. it was an expensive route for authors. A few of the short run publishers have found a middle ground requiring the author to purchase a substantial number of copies while offering to distribute the remainer.

A few of my friends have had some success with lulu.com. There is a modest price of entry and success is far from assured. As I look across my bookshelf I find several technical books published by PacktPub but purchased both online and at stores likes Borders..I my Inbox this morning, I found an offer from PacktPub for a free Ebook on VirtualDub.

There are many sources of video today including a fair number of inexpensive digital cameras. It has never been easier to be come a video "producer" except that good software has been prohibitively expensive. The cheap stuff is hopelessly incompetent except for "VirtualDub". and VirtualDub is pretty complex. A decent book might just be the edge you need to get started and "free" is the right price. You can check out the deal at http://www.packtpub.com/virtualdub/book If you decide to go through the hoops you will have to create an account. The PDF will be password protected (your email address) and there are restrictions.

If you do come up with something, I'd like to take a peek.
