epub sales from a report released April 2011

At the risk of quoting a blog, that quotes a study and another news article, the Data Conversion Library (DCL) has this to say about epub sales:


The latest report from the Association of American Publishers shows that February closed with eBooks sales capping out at $90.3M with paperbacks coming in at a mere $81.2M. For the first time, eBooks have become the best-selling medium in the US (a 202.3% increase in February!), and it seems that trend will continue. According to the Guardian, the record sales are likely due to the fantastic sales of eBook reading hardware during the holiday season. With so many more people having access to electronic reading devices, it’s only natural for the sale of digital content to increase accordingly.
