iBooks Author works limited to commercial distribution on iPad through iBookstore

Quote:

While Apple's free new iBooks Author publishing app generates what appears to be a modified EPUB format, Apple's licensing terms for the app restrict commercial distribution of the ebooks it creates solely to the iBookstore. Noncommercial, free distribution of ebooks and PDFs is not restricted in any way.

Basically, if you sell it on the iBookstore for such and such price, you can't sell it anywhere else.
