When did this get to be a Java forum with 27 "send me the codes" posts at the bottom of each thread?

User experience is indeed about making things smooth for viewers, but considering you could probably sell an eBook like this for $29 to $39, I think asking your email in exchange is fair! :) Especially considering you can unsubscribe with a click or two if you're unhappy about it.

Agreed. I know that having the email submitted might be part of a larger communication strategy, but it lowers my interest right away.

We've updated our landing page and now you can download ebook directly from the www.

Thanks for your feedback!
