ScrollMotion Moving from Individual eBook Apps to eReader Container (finally!)

I’ve mentioned my dislike for those screen cluttering single-book-in-an-app ebooks many times before. It simply doesn’t make much sense to sell ebooks this way. According to MobileCrunch, one vendor – ScrollMotion – has more than 2,500 app-books in the iTunes App Store.
