According to the page I just tried it on: You save 40% on books, 50% on ebooks and videos.
This was on a somewhat randomly picked "Writing Web Apps with Ember.js" ebook (http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920030782.do) that went from $23.99 to $11.99. The same book on Kindle is $13.49 ( http://www.amazon.com/Building-Apps-Ember-js-Jesse-Cravens/dp/1449370926/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1407849615&sr=8-1&keywords=building+web+apps+with+ember.js ) So it's a little better, at least in this case, but in the same ballpark. O'Reilly does give you several ebook formats, as well. --Matt On Tue, Aug 12, 2014 at 9:09 AM, Alan Robertson <[email protected]> wrote: > What I remembered from looking was that the discount was something like > 30-40% - basically coming down to the Amazon price. > > By the way, the Denver Open Source User's group has a perpetual 50% off > deal.
