Crains NY: CEO increased BN.com’s share in e-books by nearly 20%

Quote:
Barnes & Noble’s new CEO William Lynch is making rapid headway for Barnes & Noble in the e-book market. According to Crains New York, Williams has increased BN.com’s share in e-books by nearly 20%, making it a distant second to dominant player Amazon.com.

Brothers Len and Steve Riggio, who had run the company for decades, appointed Lynch chief executive in March just 16 months after the-39-year-old executive came on board to run BN.com’s online bookstore.
I don't have an account on Crain's New York to read the actual article, but:
1) Increased what original share of the eBook market by 20%?
2) How did they determine B&N was a distant second to Amazon, since Amazon won't release their numbers?

Anyone have a Crain's account?
