Amazon kauft Stanza

Amazon kauft Anbieter des E-Book-Readers Stanza

Stanza ist eine sehr schöne App für das iPhone.
Z. Zt. nutze ich sogar mehr das iPhone als meinen 505, denn
so ein Telefon hat man halt immer in der Tasche....

So behält man die Konkurrenz unter Kontrolle. Selber das Ecosystem nicht öffnen, aber trotzdem bei den anderen Content-Anbietern mitverdienen bzw. in anderen Ecosystemen präsent sein wollen. Amazon bereitet mir langsam echt Sorgen.

Das war nur eine konsequente Handlung. Nachdem Amazon ja angekündigt hat, seine eBooks auch auf dem iPhone zu veröffentlichen, konnte man davon ausgehen, dass sie kein Konkurrenzprodukt zum eReader oder eben Stanza veröffentlichen.

Ich frage mich eher, warum Barnes&Nobles beim Kauf von Fictionwise und eReader vor kurzem Stanza nicht gleich mitgekauft haben ... Amazon hat hier einfach überlegt reagiert.

Das wirkliche Problem, dass Amazon Stanza besitzt liegt darin, dass Amazon nun entscheiden kann, welche Shops im Online-Store von Stanza verlinkt werden.

Und hier kann ein Content-Lieferant seine Mitkonkurrenten wie Fictionwise nun direkt kontrollieren oder benachteiligen. Wäre in Deutschland kartellrechtlich interessant, so ein Vorgang.
Ist auch in den USA nicht ausgeschlossen, dass bei ersten Manipulationsversuchen (bzw. Verdachtsmomenten) andere eBook-Shops erfolgreich gegen Amazon klagen können.

Amazon hat doch seine eigene App für iPhone (Kindle for iPhone).

Schon aus eigenem Interesse hoffe ich sehr, dass Amazon Stanza nicht für andere Anbieter dicht macht, so wie es beim eReader fürs iPhone gerade passiert ist.

Aber ich schätze erstmal wird sich da groß nichts ändern. Mobipocket ist ja auch von Amazon aufgekauft worden und arbeitet selbstständig weiter.

Die "eigene App" ist um Welten schlechter. Anstatt nun weiter zu entwickeln war es doch viel einfacher gut einzukaufen.
Zusätzlich kann man nun auch weitere Formate unterstützen. Denn auch Amazon beobachtet die ePup-Entwicklung ganz genau.

Ich befürchte leider, dass Stanza nun in eine andere Richtung weiterentwickelt wird.
z.B. bezweifle ich, dass es eine Unterstützung für ADEPT- DRM geschützte ePub Bücher geben wird. Und falls doch, so wird Amazon mit Sicherheit das eigene Angebot priviligiert zu anderen Content- Anbietern behandeln.

Mir sagt dieser Kauf ebenfalls nicht zu. Aber in jedem Fall ein schlauer Schazug seitens Amazon!

"Wir planen als Ergebnis der Übernahme keine Änderungen in der Stanza-Anwendung", so Prud'hommeaux.
Das kann man mit etwas bösem Willen auch negativ als "Weiterentwicklung hiermit eingestellt" interpretieren...

Nun, das wäre nach den Stillständen bei der Weiterentwicklung der Software, die es seinerzeit nach der Übernahme von Mobipocket gab, ja nichts Neues ...

Aufkaufen, den Rahm abschöpfen, aber tunlichst dafür sorgen, dass einem keine "hauseigene" Konkurrenz entsteht.

Gibt's halt irgendein "Open Stanza"-Project. Stanza hat ja selbst scheint's viel auf Open Source aufgebaut, also warum sollte das nicht von anderen schlicht übernommen werden?

Unter Umständen weil die Stanza-Software wie es scheint nicht selbst unter einer OpenSource-Lizenz steht und der Quelltext nicht öffentlich verfügbar ist. Man müsste es also wohl nachprogrammieren...

Irgendein frustrierter Stanza-Entwickler wird bald auftauchen und Stanza neu erfinden (ales schon mal da gewesen)
