With Amazon allowing textbook rental from 30 to 360 days, Coursesmart and VitalSource will have another major competitor to contend with. This will help Amazon to maintain its dominance in the industry, and will open up discussions at Google for new business models.
South Korea gets tablets instead of textbooks. This will be great considering on top of being the most ‘wired’ nation, they are also some of the most studious. The tablets will reduce the weight of books they have to carry and will also teach the students responsibility for keeping tablets in working order. I’m looking forward to seeing what comes out of it! :)
