This is a first attempt I’ve ever seen to make a map out of the e-book universe. At a first glance it looks complicated – and it’s the best way to describe what are e-books right now. They’re not niche any more. They break into mainstream. They lure big names.

Sure, there are weak pointe here. I’m missing content providers, for example. You can find many more. On the other hand it would be too complicated to put everything into a single map. And we have to realize, that in a couple of months it will be even more complex. Too complex to vizualize it.

So look at this carefully. Study it. Take your time. This is a first and maybe the last map of e-book world you look at.
