The headline kind of says it all here, but I’m seriously wondering why this is.  I mean, I don’t have an iPad so using iBooks to read only on my iPhone doesn’t seem practical (wow that was a lot of i’s, what has Apple done to us?) If I could just pick up my MacBook and begin reading the latest Alex Rider novel (honestly my favorite book series ever) I would be the happiest customer.

Here is my problem: I just cleaned out my bookshelf of old books that take up space and were only read one time.  I now want to take the digital route, however I don’t want to buy a Kindle. Even though Kindle has a dedicated Mac app, I already have my laptop and would prefer to just read off it.  Yes, I know I could use Kindle’s apps to read across my Mac and iPhone, but I already have some iBooks and don’t want accounts with both.  Simply put, and to avoid ranting, Apple needs to bring iBooks to the Mac.  Here is a video I found on YouTube that shows how to read iBooks on the Mac using another program.  The video was uploaded by delawarehall on August 27, 2010.

For now, this might just have to do.  Does anyone else want iBooks on their Mac as much as I do?  The comment section is waiting below.
