Title:
  [an option to] Disable books and magazines

Status in Ubuntu Software Center:
  Invalid
Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Why are books and magazines being sold in a "Software" center? They
  are not software!

  I wanted Unity tweak tool, and instead typed Ubuntu Tweak in search of
  software center. Like always, I got a list of totally unrelated books
  but nothing to suggest unity tweak tool app.

  The books and magazines always and horribly spam regular search
  results with irrelevant stuff.

  Please [provide an option to] disable books and magazines from the
  Software center. They are not software and should not be sold there,
  just like beer and milk isn't a software, and isn't being sold over
  there.
