(These are the official stats from the IDPA, which is the part of the AAP for digital publishers, as released this morning. These are US-only figures and represent wholesale rather than retail, so the retail figures could be twice as high.)
eBook sales statistics for June 2009 have been released from the Association of American Publishers (AAP) who collects these statistics in conjunction with the IDPF.
Trade eBook sales were $14,000,000 for June, a 136.2% increase over June 2008 ($5,900,000).
Calendar Year to Date sales are up + 149.3%
Q2 2009 wholesale trade sales were $37,600,000
A couple of observations indicating the growth we are seeing.
- First two quarters of 2009 have already surpassed total of all 2008 wholesale trade sales.
- June 2009 wholesale trade sales were $14,000,000 which is highest single month thus far. April 2009 wholesale trade was previous high at $12,100,000
- Q1 2009 set the previous bar for trade wholesale for the 12 – 15 trade publishers at $25,800,000, which has been surpassed by Q2 09.
