I hope that there is a European reaction to this news.

And yep ..... I think this move by Amazon / Book depository smells a bit like restrictive trade practices in disguise.

This statement just does not ring true to me:

'The Book Depository has come to the decision to cease selling eBooks, as we feel that the customer experience we were able to offer was not as good as it should have been. This is partially driven by complexity in format and the number of differing devices, which we found often led to customer frustration.'

If the Book Dep wanted to stop selling ebooks then just stop selling them ..... why tell such a porky!!!!
