On April 2, Microsoft announced the closure of the section of the Microsoft Store dedicated to ebooks: from Tuesday you can no longer buy, rent or order ebooks from the digital product store. Furthermore, all the books already purchased can be read until July, after which they will be canceled. In fact, when you buy an ebook, in all the large digital stores that sell them, you don't buy a book to read but a license to read it. Microsoft will reimburse users for what they spend on ebooks and give them a $ 25 coupon to spend in the Microsoft Store in case they wrote notes and underlined ebooks read before April 2. According to tech-savvy BBC reporter Dave Lee, the fact that Microsoft decided to refund all people who bought ebooks on the Microsoft Store means there weren't that many.
