Papabear O'Reilly does not give out free ebooks. Tim O'Reilly gives out free ebooks and even gives out free ebooks if you own the old paper book and enter the ISBN number on his site.

I'm not seeing where to enter the ISBN. Could you point me in the right direction please?

EDIT: I've found where you register print books, but it claims you have to pay $5 to "upgrade" to the ebook version.

It used to be free. I guess they added the $5 fee?
