Inspiration

It is time to retire old concepts and embrace the new streaming digital world. Ironically, we keep the the nostalgic name

Imagine a "bookstore" which sells books Page-By-Page.*

This would allow readers to take their reading budget much further since a lot of books are never consumed completely. However, because readers can now afford more content on the whole and from larger variety of authors - the total consumption is actually increased and distributed to a larger market segment.

This approach also benefits authors by providing them with auditable statistics of which areas(pages) are consumed more than others - pricing incentives for readers to share usage statistics like number of pages bought, time-on-page, skips, highlight comments, etc.

This ecosystem is also beneficial to educational organizations and their student since it makes curriculum and syllabi materials much more affordable.
