New York Times Bestseller eBook List Shifts to Online Only | The ...

From Good Ereader:

The New York Times started to include ebooks in print and online editions?back in 2011. The company announced today that it is suspending the inclusion of ebook titles in the newspaper and only posting them on the website. The prices of the ebooks will also not be included going forward, due to the shifting economic landscape of online sellers.

Pamela Paul is the current editor of the Book Review section of the New York Times, a post she only attained in April. She said in a statement, ?The ebook list has migrated online, the digital world being its natural habitat. Given the fluid variety of pricing in today?s marketplace, we have also stopped including cover prices on the lists.?

There?s a new term for 99-cent ebooks ? fluidly-priced. Remove them from the Sunday paper and those nasty indie ebooks will surely go away. Take the print readers on a pleasant journey back to an earlier time before the economic landscape of publishing began to shift. Why remind the New York literati about Amazon over their coffee and croissants?

The new editor knows how to make Big Publishing cheer. But can she can make them buy more advertising?
