Friday’s Journal has an article on digital booksellers. Amazon controls a huge share and will sell 3 million Kindles this year. Apple will sell 5.5 million iPads in roughly 3/4 of a year. Google is set to launch it’s eBook business in June. The upshot of this seems to be that brick and mortar book selling may soon go the way of the neighborhood record store. This will affect lots of businesses that print and distribute and sell books as well. We are blessed (or cursed) to live in interesting times.
