Google (GOOG) will begin selling digital books in late June or July, taking on both market leader Amazon.com (AMZN) and new entrant Apple (AAPL). As the Wall Street Journal reports, a Google exec announced the move at an event today in New York.
The new service, to be called Google Editions, will allow users buy digital copies of books they discover through its book search service. The company will allow book retailers to sell Google Editions on their own sites. There were no immediate details on book pricing or publisher participation.
