Q: Free addition to an already existing print subscription package?

Can one provide work created with iBooks Author as a FREE ADDITION to an already existing subscription package? No rise in the subscription cost would occur if this were added. This would be a free addition for subscribers to download for free. This would act as a free digital option/addition to the print subscription. Possible? I know you can distribute the iBook Author work for free, but wanted to ask if it could be free inside of an existing subscription pacakge that is not conneted to iTunes or the iBooks store.

    Can I distribute works created with iBooks Author as part of a product or service that charges a subscription-based fee?

    Books created with iBooks Author may not be sold as part of a subscription-based product or service. iBooks Author books must be distributed free of charge or made available for sale via the iBookstore.

    That is what I wasn't sure about. I thought that question was relating to charging the work to be part of a subscription. I wanted to get a bit more clear about that.  I didn't think it answered this specific question. I would not charge a fee for the work, but have it as a free addition for subscribers.

     

    Thanks for your help!
