Hi all--

I'm working on a site that will sell ebooks. I think the way for it to
work will be for a customer to submit a payment, then have an
autoresponder email a link to download the book.  The client does not have
a merchant account, but does work with PayPal.  I've looked at that
mechanism in PayPal and it looks fairly complex for those of us who aren't
programmers.  Any other suggestions?

Also...If I send someone a link to download a book they paid for, they can
easily forward that email to someone else, who can download the book for
free.  What's the best way to avoid this?

Thanks!
