HP, Amazon Team to Offer Paperback Copies of Rare Books

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

Some of technology’s best-known companies are betting there’s pent-up demand for on-demand books. HP, the world’s top seller of personal computers and printers, is teaming up with online retailer Amazon.com to challenge Internet search leader Google in the quirky new market of re-creating digital books as paperbacks. The concept represents a different type of book recycling, as digital copies created from print get a second life as paperbacks. Publishing a single copy of a digital book usually can be done in a few minutes.
