That's certainly true - they suggest that the retail might be twice the wholesale number. But it should follow the same pattern, and if ebooks move from 1% to 4% of wholesale, I'd expect a similar shift in retail. The point of the chart is that ebook sales are taking off sharply, in a market where on-line sales are beginning to dominate.
