More Than 350 Thousand Textbooks Downloaded From iBooks in The First 3 Days

The market research firm Global Equities Research released some surprising figures this morning. It looks like Apple’s new textbook platform is off to a good start.

Global Equities hasn’t disclosed how they know, but according to their data Apple has seen more than 350,000 digital textbooks downloaded since Thursday’s announcement. What’s even better was that iBooks Author, Apple’s new proprietary eBook making app, was itself downloaded some 90 thousand times.

These  numbers look great, yes, but they are the silver lining in a very gray cloud.
