[edit] Overview
Fictionwise features both DRM (secure) and non-DRM eBooks in a wide variety of formats. They also have magazine subscriptions available. Fictionwise is an excellent source of short fiction as individual items rather than in an anthology. They offer a lot of discounts using their "micropay" in store credit, and always have a small selection of books with 100% micropay rebate. They have a limited selection of free books, and occasionally offer free downloads in special promotions. They also have a mobipocket lending library for members of their BuyWise Club (currently offering a very limited selection).
