Kindle helps book store?
https://source.amazon.com/#/welcome
Amazon said “if someone buy kindle at the book store, the book store will get 10% of selling for 2 years.” and maybe Amazon want to say “we help book store.”.
But I don’t think so. For customer is good because they can buy kindle after touching it into practice, and for amazon is of course good, but they can get selling just 2 years and 10%. I think it is not enough to cover decreasing selling.Limited time is worse.
I have an idea for book store. Book store staff will be curator, kind of consultant. This means that if customer go to book sore, staff chooses some books for customer or suport a casual meeting.
Amazonが本屋救います、amazon soueceってのをアメリカで始めた模様。これはKindleを売った本屋に対して、2年間そのKindleで売れた電子書籍の売り上げ金額の10%をあげますよーっていうお話だそうですが…2年って縛りあるし、これで救えるとは到底…もう基本的に本屋も在庫なんか持たずに(見本本だけとかにして)電子書籍との距離を縮めて、いけばいいのになーと思ったり。まぁそれより先に、書店員のもっとキュレーター化を求めます。
