News from the world of retail....
Wow. A tough day for Amazon.
First Google announces it's going to
create a eBook store to go after the niche currently held by Amazon/Kindle. Only their shop will be hardware independent so you will be able to read your book on just about anything.
Then there is Walmart, who apparently has their panties in a twist because people keep calling Amazon the "Walmart of the web". So they are launching a
full frontal assault on amazons book business. Heavily discounting some highly anticipated upcoming books.
I gotta say, it would make me nervous if both Google and Walmart were gunning for my customers.
