Google Now Selling eBooks In Australia

Gizmodo AU

Want another eBook store option? You’ve got one — Google Books just started selling titles in Australia for both cloud and digital device reading.

It’s been a while coming, but you can now purchase eBooks — protected ePub titles, to be specific — from Google’s Books portal here in Australia. Pricing at a quick glance appears to be near-identical to the competing iBooks and Kindle stores, with most titles starting at the $9.99 price point. [Google eBooks]

    You can also get to the bookstore through the Android Market, on your phone and through the Market website (There’s a new navigation bar to the left of the search bar).

    Three books that I bought for under AU$10 for my Kindle are being sold for AU$14-AU$17 on Google store. Not quite the same pricing I’m afraid.

    Eh. Already have an Amazon Kindle account. There’s only so much sources you can get your eBooks.
