Hi! Starting a new thread on this as I think things might've changed as time has gone on.
I want to upload a new file for my book that updates the front and back matter as I put out my paperback and sequels (mainly to credit my paperback interior designer and link to the sequels). But there are no changes to the content of the book, and I definitely don't want to annoy previous purchasers by having the retailers prompt them to download a new copy or something. So my question is: Do the retailers do that kind of prompting automatically, or do you have to opt in for it? And if so, if I don't want it then how do I stop it from happening?
Er. From what I've been able to find I think the answer these days is "just upload a new copy and nothing will happen to previous purchasers' copies unless I request it," but I wanted to get confirmation on that.
TIA!
