Quote from a few pages back! I should also point out that B&N has been trying new things and working harder to get books exposed to likely audiences. I think they are trying a lot harder than they were a year ago. So things can change. You never know when one retailer might take off.

I'm pretty miffed by it all. I'm just hoping that now they've dropped the price of the KOBOs to £20 cheaper than the Kindles that those who haven't opted into the select programme benefit.

Why isn't the borrowing chart separate? We have two charts at the moment one for Free ebooks and one for actual sales, IMO the borrowed books shouldn't be included in the sales chart. ;-)

Maybe Amazon are worried about the amount of Tablets and Kobos being sold and are afraid of honest competition.

All I know is that since this started my best selling thriller has romped up the B&N rankings! ;-)
