Google e-books

GOOGLE is ending a program that allowed independent booksellers to offer e-books from its online store.

In a blog posting on Thursday, Google digital publishing director Scott Dougall wrote that the program hadn't "gained the traction" the company was hoping for. From January 31, the search engine giant will sell e-books only through Google Play. Publishers and booksellers had hoped that Google's e-book store would cut into Amazon.com's lead in the digital market.
