The future of Books

Digital PDf books and the other Nook format, iPad format, Amazon format, all will fighting for that market but the printed books are on their way out too.

First we had books on take still printed books.
Second we had books on CD still printed books.
Third mp3's made audio CD's pure digital still printed books.
fourth PDF books were coming out as an alternate still printed books.
Fifth digital book readers and pure digital book from a source or audio download book does not have to be printed might make a few but could be done.

Next pure digital written or maybe even just spoken. but you would record it digital so that is digital no media or physical tape. written on computer saved digital saved digital sent to publisher digital converted digital gotten back digital. So now you'll have a digital book with audio and if you choose to have audio on or off as you turn the digital pages you can. wow that was a run on! OR you can listen to the book and then you want to read a little on your own, pause open digital reader and read.

So why bother having a publisher at all go right to the digital makers its so small they will take it. You the writer pays almost nothing but the person pays what 99cents for your book and you get 97cents it seems small but it would add up.

look at music all digital almost no media unless you want to print a few CD's otherwise you can skip it.

Movies, you can go shoot your own digital camera upload digital to a site and someone can watch it.

Books, digital audio digital readablity only a tiny step to combine the two.

Next blog clouds....
