This according to a story published in Information World Review (not available online). Research and reference publisher Gale has said that sale of editorial content via Amazon.com has exceeded expectations. In the deal struck last year, Gale sold e-documents, repackaged as PDF files, available exclusively through Amazon.com.
Will other consumer publishers follow suit? Expect Amazon to announce something on the lines of a content clearinghouse (on the lines of the doomed Contentville) soon.
