Amazon Reports 32% Growth in Sales

Publishing News / 1 Comments

Booksales are up but bookstore sales are down. Perhaps the difference can be explained by Amazon who reported a profit of $111 million for quarter ending March 31 with sales up 32% from a year ago.

I remember when reports said that Amazon book sales only account for 5% of the book market. I wonder what it is now.
