Logos, when are you finally going to provide download versions of these Fortress Press titles?

Rosie Perera

I've been waiting to purchase these until they are available as downloads. Come on, what is the hold-up? Everything else in your catalogue has been available as a download for over a year now. Can't you convince Fortress to let you do it? They're the dinosaurs now. CD-ROMs are so last century. Fortress is clearly capable of letting you do download versions as shown by this collection and this one. Or did someone just forget about these orphans?

• The Writings of the New Testament (Luke Timothy Johnson)
• Preaching from the Lectionary: An Exegetical
  Commentary
• Theology of the Old Testament: Testimony, Dispute, Advocacy (Brueggemann)
• Introduction to World Religions
• American Religious Traditions: The Shaping of
  Religion in the United States
• A Reformation Reader: Primary Texts with Introductions
• Christian Theology Set
• Introduction to the History of Christianity: First Century to the Present Day 
• Palestine in the Time of Jesus: Social
  Structures and Social Conflicts
• Constructive Theology: A Contemporary Approach to Classical Themes
• The Old Testament Story: An Introduction
• The Hebrew Bible: A Socio-Literary Introduction
• Martin Luther's Basic Theological Writings
• Introduction to the Hebrew Bible (John Collins)
• Jewish Literature Between the Bible and the
  Mishnah

Perhaps part of the problem is that these all come with the CD-ROM and physical book too, and perhaps you have warehouse stock you still need to clear out before you can begin selling them as downloads, but I don't want the physical books. Those are so last century, too. I don't have shelf space for them. I would never use them as physical books. Also I already own Bruggemann in hard cover and don't want another copy.

Hi Rosie,

We've been working with Augsburg Fortress on these titles. Most of these will be available within the next couple weeks.
