New iPhoto plugin for MyPublisher books

MyPublisher today released a free iPhoto plug-in that will allow Mac users to create their albums in iPhoto but then order the finished PhotoBooks directly from MyPublisher. Until now, users were only able to order books directly from Apple. The company is also offering the first 5,000 Mac users who download the Plug-in a coupon for one free 20-page hardcover PhotoBook: "For years iPhoto customers have been asking if they could order directly from us instead of Apple. Recently we found that there is some customer dissatisfaction with the quality of the printing and binding in the books ordered from Apple and also with the turn-around and delivery times for their orders." The company said that it was able to offer 3-4 day delivery to most of Europe at a shipping cost that is about half of what Apple charges. Pricing is $30 for a Linen-cover hardcover 8.5" x11" book and $40 for a Leather-cover hardcover book (8.5" x 11").

I'm glad mypublisher is doing this. I was pretty annoyed to find that people were still reporting poor (in fact poorer than last year) quality for the new books they were ordering this year - especially after Jobs proclaimed that the print quality was much better this year. Hopefully this will get apple's attention. Now I just worry that apple will force mypublisher to discontinue the program for some legal reason. The better thing for Apple to do is just give higher quality print books like they promised.

I order some photo books from Apple as gifts last year around Christmas time. I was pretty happy with the quality.

I then ordered a couple more after the first of the year and they are terrible. I couldn't believe what was sent to me, esspecially after Jobs said the quality has gotten better.
