If I have to give out my name, email, phone number, and workplace to even view this "free" ebook... how is that free? Personal info is marketing currency, just because they don't put a dollar amount on it, doesn't mean it's free. If it's free, then they should not require anything in return. While this really isn't a big deal, I just find this type of practice to be dishonest. So in return, they will get false information.

To be fair to them, they sent me updates to their books when they amended them and issue corrections. This is good to know.
