Using Amazon product images in your ebook?

Shannon Tani · 05-05-2009, 08:58 PM

Is this OK to do?

I'm writing a ebook for my teaching sites and I want to recommend a product on Amazon. However, in the ebook, I want to say what makes this particular product a good choice, so that the people reading it could find something similar if they don't like that particular one. To do that, it's better if there's a picture right in the book.

I know that you can use code which places the image on your website, but I'm not sure about an ebook.

Any ideas?
Love,
Shannon

I don't think there should be a problem with it Shannon, I have used their images before if it is to promote their product it should be ok.

Of course, that's just my opinion and not whether its legal to do it or not, but I certainly don't see a problem with doing it.
