EBook stuff I like

  • Jeff Bezos interviewed by Charlie Rose - talks about the Kindle and why it matters.
  • US stats show 9% ebook share, grim news for print. The latest US book industry sales figures (Oct 2010) from the Association of American Publishers show ebooks are now tracking at 9% of domestic trade book revenue for the 8-month period January to August 2010. This is up from 3.3% market share for the same period in 2009. To add some further perspective on how rapid this growth has been, ebooks were 1.12% of trade sales in calendar 2008. more.
