Sinopsis

Chief Executive Officer of The Tattered Cover Book Stores   Interview starts at 10:03 and ends at 42:09   I think it would be interesting for independent booksellers to experiment with selling eBooks directly, because it’s become much less device-centric. Tablets have in some ways normalized that world, and the notion that someone could build an open-source eReader app and that we could have direct relationships with publishers and sell eBooks is something I think worth exploring down the road. But it’s not a part of our core business. Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Google do what they do really well. For us, we have limited resources and limited brainpower. I’d rather see us make our stores even better than focus a lot of energy on that.   News “Amazon exec to run digital efforts of Italy’s government” by Angel Gonzalez at The Seattle Times - February 10, 2016 Diego Piacentini featured on Amazon employee page “Working at Amazon” web site - includes signup for receiving email updates Amazon organization
