Mobile Books-Books on the Go Edit




Mobile Books-Books on the Go
 Posted: Jan 7, 07

As audio books are becoming popular, so is the adoption of mobile books.  These electronic books are easy to access and carry around as they can be read on mobile phones. 

Electronic books consist mainly of novels and comics that have been digitized for mobile phones and other machines. In most cases, they are purchased over the Internet and downloaded to computer and phone screens. According to a publishing company active in this market, sales of electronic books in Japan in fiscal 2005 (April 2005 to March 2006) doubled to ¥9.4 billion ($78.3 million at ¥120 to the dollar) from the previous year. Cell phone sales accounted for ¥4.6 billion ($38.3 million) - nearly half the total - a whopping 3.8-fold increase. (web-japan.org)
