It was time for Google to unveil his plans for the commercial activity of the Google Books digitization. Thus, at the book fair in Frankfurt, the U.S. giant has announced the launch in early 2010 of its own digital library called Google Edition.

Edition that Google should allow 30 000 publishers from Google Books partners to market through the new electronic bookshop their books scanned through the use of Google Check Out, the secure payment solution giant. Sales where Google, through luxury, should levy a charge estimated at 37%.

Switching to serious matters ...

However, Google does not talk yet allow the download of books which would therefore be viewed online via a computer, an e-book online, a smartphone or tablet.

This is in contrast to a logical and expected the service merely for the time to redirect Internet users to shop online from Amazon or Barnes And Noble. A model that limited the revenue from Google to the simple sharing of advertising revenue. Edition with Google, Google clearly intends to boost its sales activity related to Books.

Remains to be seen in the field of e-book, how does Apple, including the launch of a highly probable iTablet (or iPad) in early 2010.
