Amazon to offer Kindle Singles

John Moe Oct 12, 2010

They’ll be short little things, length of a few chapters. Cheap too. There isn’t a lot of difference between publishing a super long e-book and a super short one. The printing press is equally quiet for both. So why not redefine the “book” a little bit along the way.

Still, it makes me think a little bit about cassingles and CD singles.
