Barnes & Noble: We Have a Best-Selling E-Reader Too

If ambiguous, imprecise sales milestones are good enough for Amazon, then they’re good enough for Barnes & Noble too. The company said today that its Nook e-reader is its best-selling product ever. Which is exactly what Amazon said of the Kindle earlier this week–and as far as sales metrics go, equally meaningless. A more interesting data point: Barnes & Noble’s claim that it now sells more digital books than physical ones on BN.com.
