When MS bought 17.6% of Nook for $300M in 2012, B&N still claimed 20%+ ebook market share. That valued Nook at $2B and Kindle at about $4B if it were a standalone business.
Today's news puts Nook at 8% market share (or lower) and values Nook media at $680M and Kindle's alleged 60% at about $6B.
Lots of industry changes in the past two years, huh?
