“Since launching almost a year ago, we’ve confirmed that Reader owners are avid book readers and great customers of our growing selection of book titles. Publishers are responding by making more electronic titles available, and, increasingly by making them available at the same time as print versions are released.” said Lee Shirani, vice president for eBooks at Sony CONNECT.
