27. AmazoneBook sales suppress HardcoverWill paper book vanish? 2010 Q2, it sold 143 Kindle books for every 100 hardcover books(including hardcovers for which there is no Kindle edition.)

53. Kindle Singles Compelling Ideas Expressed at Their Natural Length 26 January 2011 Kindle Singles are “twice the length of a New Yorker feature or as much as a few chapters of a typical book” and generally 5,000 to 30,000 words (roughly 30 to 90 pages). Kindle Singles are available to both Kindle device and app users, and priced between $0.99 and $4.99. Kindle Singles are important because the new format gives bloggers and writers out there who may not have the time to write a long-form book, the opportunity to publish a pamphlet or shorter work. And it seems fairly easy for writer to publish these works, especially since Amazon is looking to build up its collection of content in this genre.
