]]> Comment on E-books taking the lead by andersborg http://abiro.com/w/2011/04/18/e-books-taking-the-lead/#comment-97 andersborg Tue, 19 Apr 2011 08:15:46 +0000 http://abiro.com/w/2011/04/18/e-books-taking-the-lead/#comment-97 We haven't had the same broad driving force as Amazon in Europe, so we are definitely behind. I doubt that many have imported Kindles from USA, and you need to buy them from USA, even though there's also Amazon UK. I have no idea how far behind we are though. Clearly the success lies in providing both the reading device and the reading material in one clean and easy package. Buying reading devices without the e-shop in the bundle is just for enthusiasts.

The problem lies largely in doing this without controlling the whole chain the way Amazon ultimately does. Possibly some kind of app solution on something like an iPad could provide the utility, but then there is the problem of finding books people want to read, where you are aloud this "intrusion". I think you need to find a couple of reasonably popular authors who want to try this. That would be most interesting! I think this would be a very interesting experiment.
