Weinstein repeats a comment Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos made at the D: All Things Digital conference that the company is seeing 6% of book sales in electronic form for the 125,000 titles sold in both print and digital formats. Weinstein notes that in 2007, e-books overall were less than 1% of all U.S. book sales.
Weinstein asserts that the Amazon Kindle e-book reader “could be the catalyst for accelerating the growth of e-books for Amazon, much the way that the iPod fueled the growth of digital music.”
