Still think the NorthAm market doesn't matter?
Edit: With the China market running 21.4% that leaves the rest of the world with 20%.
In other words, the NorthAmerican market is 3 times the size of all the non-chinese markets combined. Yeah, it's "only" the US.  |
If they finally come to their senses and make the stuff AVAILABLE outside the US (both books and readers), then the 58% goes down a big deal. That's the real problem why the US market is so big, not because they have more money...
