TRENDABLE E-BOOK CONSUMER DATA,
NOW IN ITS THIRD VOLUME

BISG's ongoing Consumer Attitudes Toward E-Book Reading survey provides trendable information about book consumers' interests in and preferences for digital content, as well as the factors that influence their reading habits and purchasing decisions.

Over the course of three annual volumes (Volume One: 2009-2010, Volume Two: 2010-2011, and Volume Three: 2011-2012), thousands of e-book consumers have been asked questions including:

• When did you first begin acquiring e-books?
• Where do you typically acquire e-books?
• Which genre(s) are you more likely to read as an e-book rather than a print book?
• What device do you now use most frequently to read e-books?
• How likely are you to buy a dedicated e-reader such as Amazon Kindle, Barnes & Noble nook, or Sony Reader for yourself or to give as a gift (in the next 2 months)?
• And much more!...

Survey results are purchasable via dynamic online access called Real-Time Reporting* and as standalone PDF Summary Reports. The end result is practical guidance to companies working to refine their e-book business strategies.
