Is it moderated/censored?
I just had a look on the website to see if there are any guides to help me improve my sex life (don't ask). I tried various search terms but had no results. On a separate search, using the term 'bathroom', I was amused to find guides for 'How To Buy An iPad'.

1. A warm smile
2. One or more 'wodges' of cash (1 wodge = 3 bundles)
3. At least 2 scraps of intelligence

Isn't the normal procedure
1. Make sure light switch is off
2. Change light bulb (careful not to burn your fingers)
3. Switch light on

How to... Encourage copyright abuse
Interesting that the example they provide is how to bake Nigella's 'Love Buns'. Step 1: don't buy a copy of Nigella's book but take the recipe from this guide instead. Step 2: rest of recipe
This answers the reviewer's comment about the inability to record VoiceOver. If sound were available there would be a million and one guides entitled "How to listen to [recording artiste]'s [latest single]. " Which suggests they know full well they are encouraging copyright theft but are hoping that book publishers will be less aggressive in chasing them than the music industry would be.
