I think that the core business of Amazon was started by selling books. So it is meaningful to them. In Apple case, Apple sells hardwares such as Mac,iPhone,and iPad... Two companies have a different look of the ebook market.

I saw Amazon is trying to adopt a new service calling renting ebooks for readers through Kindle. To make it easier, I think Amazon is trying to directly deal with authors.
