New Additions to the Kindle Store.
First, newspapers –
- The McClatchy Co. added 5 newspapers to the Kindle (courtesy Editor and Publisher) – The Sacramento Bee, The Charlotte Observer, The Fort Worth Star-Telegram, The Anchorage Daily News, and The News and Observer in Raleigh. Find them at the Kindle Newspapers section.
- The subscription price is a very reasonable $6.99 a month.
- McClatchy will also be adding The Kansas City Star and The Miami Herald soon.
- There are now 69 newspapers in the Kindle Store.
Guess the news of 30,000 WSJ subscribers has newspapers willing to experiment.
Next, magazines and comics -
- Barron’s is being listed as New in the Kindle Store. It’s $10.99 a month.
- Information Week is now available on the Kindle.
- Harlequin Comics and SoftBank Japan announced that comic adaptations of 6 Harlequin’s romance novels are available on Kindle.
- The Harlequin comics are $3.99 per title and are English versions of Harlequin’s Japanese Manga.
- They are Kindle DX optimized.
Oprah’s next season will be the last of her talk show.
Aah – Oprah did so much for Kindle sales last year. It’ll be sad to see her go.
She’ll be focusing on the Winfrey Television Network. A random factoid that got mentioned – 42 million people a week watch her show on Television. Wow!
Nook being sold out is getting TV coverage
KIRO 7 was talking about it and the Kindle forums say CNBC was too. KIRO7 mentioned that the nook was a Kindle competitor and that Kindle is still available.
Nothing like giving a local giant some free publicity 
.
It really is interesting to see the amount of Publicity the nook has managed to conjure up. Running out of stock will prevent them from really hurting the Kindle.
