A few years back when I was more involved with the company, one of
the benefits of publishing a book with O'Reilly (besides the
extremely coveted "O'Reilly Author" baseball cap) was a life-time
Safari subscription that included all O'Reilly/Safari books.
Too bad I think the interface sucks. I understand their desire to
make it difficult to download a book, but I find it very very hard to
search and read stuff through Safari.
