Has anyone used this app? it is beta so new and probably just too small, but I posted 118 books (which only took couple of minutes) and only one came back as available.

You take pictures of your bookshelves and send them in. In 15 minutes, you get back a list of which of those books are available to you, as an owner of a hard copy, as an ebook, for $5 or less.

I am running out of room and would like to replace some of my hardcopies with ebooks.

I'm going to send in a lot more today.

I have now put up 369 books total and only 6 are eligible. They ARE all priced a few dollars under the amazon ebook price.

>2 mkboylan: Bitlit's success depends on the number of publishers who sign contracts with them. I think Harper is the only major one on board right now. Other large publishers probably are waiting to see how it pans out before signing up.

Thanks for responding Diana. Here's another link to an article about it:

Harper is the only one I recognized but I don't know much about publishers so the smaller ones usually don't mean anything to me.

I think I have the opposite problem of many here, in that I actually have quite a bit of space available on my shelves. This is a neat idea, though. Hopefully by the time I'm in need of it, it will have expanded.
