Google Moves on e-Books: “Google plans to begin selling digital books in late June or July, aiming to let users to access books from a broad range of sites using multiple devices.”

Google says its new service—called Google Editions—will allow users to buy digital copies of books they discover through its book-search service. It will also allow book retailers—even independent shops—to sell Google Editions on their own sites, taking the bulk of the revenue. Google has yet to release details about pricing and which publishers are expected to participate.
