Amazon, Publisher Settle Digital Books Dispute
A three month long dispute over the sale of digital books between Amazon.com Inc. and a leading independent book distributor has been resolved, both parties said Friday.
Amazon in late February stopped selling the e-books of nearly 5,000 titles distributed by the Independent Publishers Group, which represents more than 500 publishers, following a dispute over terms. Publishing terms generally cover such areas as wholesale pricing, advertising, and payment requirements.
