(2011-01-31) Amazon Ebooks Outselling Paperbacks

Amazon.com is now selling more Kindle EBook-s than paperback books (Printed Book). Since the beginning of the year, for every 100 paperback books Amazon has sold, the Company has sold 115 Kindle books. Additionally, during this same time period the Company has sold three times as many Kindle books as hardcover books. This is across Amazon.com’s entire U.S. book business and includes sales of books where there is no Kindle edition. Free Kindle books are excluded and if included would make the numbers even higher. Hmm, so that would imply 100 paperbacks and 38 hardcovers (total 138) for each 115 Kindle sales. Right?
