Yes. ebook reader sales went up in a huge way.

I'm not sure what the numbers for ereaders were, but ebook sales should have risen in at least equal proportions, right?

ETA I'd read they sold 300-400% more than last year. Here's one report saying so.

So, no, I don't think increased sales of ebooks was caused by agency pricing, nor that Random House joining in will mean a trend up in sales. At all.
