May Financials: ebook sales up, bookstore sales down
From PublishersWeekly.com:

Quote:
the rapid growth of e-books puts the e-book market at 55% of the size of the mass market paperback market.
I guess the ebook market is starting to matter.... but we already knew that when the publishers started to pay attention/mess with pricing.

And this doesn't even count the indie and small-press ebooks, which are certainly statistically valuable even at a much lower cost per unit.
