Publishers limiting number of pages that can be viewed on AMZN

Amazon is allowing publishers to specify how many pages can be viewed in its Search Inside program, which allows buyers to browse a book the same way that they would in the store — yeah, that's going to sell a lot of books.

Amazon.com is pleased to offer our customers the ability to view copyrighted material from books participating in the Search Inside! program. To protect this copyrighted material, the books are subject to publisher-approved page-viewing limits.

You have reached a page-viewing limit. For security purposes, we are not able to provide further information about the specific limit reached.

We encourage you to use the other Search Inside! features that are available to you regardless of your limit status. These features include the ability to search inside any book in the program and view text-only excerpts from that book. You can also browse sample pages for any book in the program by clicking the links in the "Browse sample pages" box found on that book's product detail page.
