Well, I guess it could be 'cause they've been busier than they expected just supplying the U.S.  |
Basically we read about the same books. I think the Québécois part is the reason for the stall. It's very different from French litterature.
B3T (
back
to
the
thread) I think that maintaining advertising to written media is an error, logical but still an error. I'm sure it is a contributing factor in all the previous e-readers's 'almost there' mitigated success. Even if you consider tv viewers to be basically litterary phobic, there is a huge number of people who used to read, who gave up for various reasons. Give them the opportunity to try the ease of use and the novelty of an ebook reader and they'll be willing to come back to litterature. I did it and took time off from the stupid passtime programming(with extreme derogatory intention) that kept me there, to do something worthwhile, that is not related to work-a-holism.
