电子图书越来越受欢迎,这对出版商构成严峻挑战。亚马逊占据美国实体图书市场的25%,但拥有美国电子图书市场60%的份额。
In the UK, about 90 per cent of ebooks are sold through Amazon, giving it great influence over how they are priced and promoted.
在英国,90%左右的电子图书通过亚马逊销售,因此亚马逊在定价和促销方面拥有巨大的影响力。
Mike Shatzkin, chief executive of The Idea Logical Company, a New York-based consultancy to many of the world’s biggest publishers, says Penguin, which is owned by Pearson, the parent company of the Financial Times, and Random House, owned by Bertelsmann, the German media group, will be better able to negotiate with Amazon by joining forces.
总部位于纽约、为全球多家大型出版商提供咨询的The Idea Logical Company的首席执行官迈克·沙茨金(Mike Shatzkin)指出,企鹅出版社与兰登书屋合并以后,将能增强对亚马逊的议价能力。企鹅出版社是英国《金融时报》的姊妹公司,两者均隶属培生集团(Pearson)。兰登书屋所有者是德国媒体集团贝塔斯曼(Bertelsmann)。
“Being bigger gives them strong power, he says. “It’s all about negotiating power with the retailers.
沙茨金说:“规模变大,力量就增强。这里最关键的就是与零售商讨价还价的能力。
