Some interesting developments in the world of e-Books:
- Technavio research predicts that there will be
approximately a 14% increase in e-book readership by 2020. In fact, their
Global perspective report predicts the following:
“Technavio’s market research
analyst predicts that the global publishing market will surpass USD 357 billion
over the predicted period. Much of the market’s growth is due to the
surging popularity of digital
publishing as it
is relatively cost-effective for authors to get their books published and very
convenient for the readers to read and carry around. Such advantages have
propelled the adoption rate of e-books, where the readers are increasingly contributing to the
market’s revenue through monthly and annual subscriptions. With the increased
penetration of the Internet, readers want to read digital books more than
printed books. Digital content is the future of book
publishing with
its explosion on devices like Kindle, Reader, and iPhone, resulting
in the overall growth of the market in the coming years.”
