Free businesses and e-books

These days, I had some chances to download some new books online with no cost. I've already downloaded 3 books. I heard that I could download the translated version of "Free: The father of radical pricing" written by Chris Anderson.  I downloaded that as soon as possible. I believe that this PDF version offered for about 1,000 people. (I forgot the exact number... ) Of course, we cannot print it. I'm still reading this book on my MacBook because I couldn't take time to read book on my MacBook these days...

Anyway, after this book, some books offered to free download. I downloaded "できるポケット＋EVERNOTE(Dekiru pocket plus Evernote)" as a monitor. (I need to tweet a little bit about this...) I've already read this book.
And I downloaded "生命保険のからくり(The gimmick of life assurance)".

Maybe there are more free books that we can download. But I'm looking for e-book readers for Japan! Amazon Japan is not treating digital version of books on their web site yet. And the e-book market in Japan is not large enough, I think. But these free download offer may change these situation.

But there's Japanese proverb that is "ただより高いものはない".
In English "There is nothing more costly than something that got for free(nothing)". So, what's next?

Thank you.
Good day & Peace and Smile!
