'Taking a cue from the music business, a major publisher today 
will begin selling the individual chapters of a popular book to 
gauge reader demand for bite-size portions of digital 
texts....Separately, HarperCollins Publishers said it will make a 
handful of its titles free online for a limited time, including a 
new novel from Paolo Coelho."
