Bookmate Subscription Service Agreement

So many. Who will win in the end?

Panzer was doing his daily business in the Catosphere when he found an interesting post about another ebook subscription service. Before Kindle Unlimited jumped into the ebook subscription service business model, there were already several monthly subscription services to choose from on the market.

According to the synopsis of a press release at the Publishers' Weekly site, Bloomsbury, Faber Factory and Harlequin have signed an agreement with subscription service Bookmate. The agreement gives Bookmate access to 15,000 ebooks to bring their total library up to half-a-million ebooks. If you want to read the full press release, the end of the synopsis includes a link to it.

Panzer says, "Everybody is getting into the ebook subscription service market. There's so many I'm tripping over them."
