Amazon Brasil se lanza en los próximos seis meses
Vía Publishing Perspectives:
"Throughout 2011, Amazon met with many Brazilian publishers but failed to sign any deals. According to people familiar with the situation, the retailer requested discounts of up to 70%, a figure that was considered to high by local publishers, who are accustomed to offering, on average, 35% for e-books."
"It remains unclear if Amazon plans to launch both the Kindle and launch a Brazilian e-bookstore simultaneously, as it did in Spain and Italy last year. In Brazil, the company is studying whether or not to manufacture the e-readers in country, or import them. One factor is taxes: last year, the Brazilian government reduced taxes on tablets produced in the country by more than 30% in an effort to stimulate local industry."
