Ebooks Don't Cannibalize Print, People Do - 2 views

  • The most important lesson I can convey to book publishing professionals is that they must understand that those of us who have made the transition to ebooks, buy ebooks, not print books.

Search an ebookstore for a title and if it doesn’t come up, it doesn’t exist – no matter how many versions are available in print
