When I was bored a bit before christmas I noticed there were quite a few classics available for free on the Kindle, so downloaded them to my PC on the off chance that I'd read them on it at some point.
I wonder how much of the figure is distorted by similar?

Of course Amazon is selling more e-books than printed books. They're the main e-book seller. - 30/01/2011 11:39:12 AM 1110 Views
the free books don't count as a sale - 31/01/2011 08:01:39 AM 1126 Views
Where does it say they aren't counting the free ones? - 31/01/2011 08:10:23 AM 1151 Views
I guess you're assuming it does and I'm assuming it doesn't. - 31/01/2011 08:14:52 AM 1193 Views
When you buy one of the free books it does have a price on the page. - 31/01/2011 08:38:56 AM 1066 Views
According to the Amazon press release, free books are excluded - - 31/01/2011 12:01:48 PM 1259 Views
So that actually means printed books outsold e-books by 20% - 31/01/2011 12:27:37 PM 1113 Views
