  • Buy it in paper.

    This would be great if it was formatted for iPad. Print is so small you can't read lyrics. If you zoom in to see music you can't turn the page quickly. Table of contents doesn't match page numbers and searching for songs is a nightmare. The whole thing is a waste of money. Too bad, would be invaluable if it was quick and easy to use.
  • Bad indexes

    By Page numbers?
    Page numbers for various indexes are incorrect, making show and song searches difficult... The "touch search" song index is not alphabetical...

    It has everything, great for the gig. Easy and quick to find a song and navigate with search function. As one reviewer mentioned, it is at first very small to read but if you DOUBLE TAP on the music it will get considerably larger. Easily readable. Put it in scroll mode and you are on your way. Thanks apple, you have made my life so much easier!
  • NOT FOR iBooks for IPAD

    Just bought the book thinking this would be perfect for iBooks, since I didn’t want to have to carry this large book around. WRONG. There is no zoom option for the scores (which makes up 90% of the book) therefore making this book close to unusable. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY until iBooks makes an update with zoom option
