Marina Del Rey, CA (PRWEB) February 12, 2008 -- Clint Brauer, General Manager of CyberRead, LLC, announced today that his firm has acquired CyberRead.com (http://www.cyberread.com), a pioneer in the ebook retail and publishing industry.

CyberRead.com has been selling ebooks since 1999 under the guidance of Marilyn Jenkins, former CEO and president of the company.

"We are here to do what the large public retailers cannot do; think about our customers first and our bottom line second," said Clint Brauer, General Manager, CyberRead, LLC. "The acquisition of CyberRead.com provides a solid technical foundation that we will use as a launching pad to gain velocity into the quickly growing ebook retail industry."

Monthly traffic on CyberRead.com and the pace at which its customers buy ebooks (http://www.cyberread.com) have nearly doubled since the official acquisition. Their wide selection of ebook titles (http://www.cyberread.com) has steadily increased from 10,000 to over 50,000 books, ranging across 130 different genres from both major and independent publishers.

The acquisition coincides with the rapid growth of the electronic publishing industry and its recent retail expansion. According to the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF), the growth of wholesale ebook sales has quickly accelerated over the past seven quarters, and Publishers Weekly news magazine recently named the popularity of ebooks as one of the top 15 trends to watch in 2008.

"I am delighted to hand off the reigns to someone with experience in the ebook industry," said Marilyn Jenkins. "I have great faith that the company will continue to satisfy publishers, authors and readers alike."
