Summary

Brazil's eBook business has flourished as a result of the growing acceptance of online resources and digital reading devices. This fits into a worldwide trend, particularly in light of the pandemic's dramatic inroads into digital consumer behavior. Over the course of the last year, Brazilians have worked harder to embrace the digital age rather than obsessing over their worries that e-books would eventually replace physical books. Back in March of 2010, the First International Digital Book Conference was organized by the Brazilian Book Chamber (CBL) and the Frankfurt Book Fair. It was an uncertain time, and most publishers were not willing to take the risk of investing in experimentation. Rather, booksellers championed the cause. The first Brazilian e-bookstore, Gato Sabido, opened for business in December 2009. When the network of bookstores Livraria Cultura started selling e-books in April 2010, it faced competition. Saraiva, the largest book chain in the nation, opened its online store a month later. The current state of affairs is so drastically different that well-known home appliance businesses like Casas Bahia, Extra (which was once a supermarket but now has locations throughout Brazil), and Ponto Frio even sell e-books). Major adjustments are still in the works. Amazon and Google are reportedly employing Brazilian experts in order to get ready for what is probably going to be a very soon launch. Although it is unlikely that they would follow through on this deadline, the government has stated that it will evaluate digital content as influential purchasing initiatives by 2014, and a number of device makers have committed to producing affordable e-reading devices in the nation.
