Flash! US Amazon store breaks 750,000 titles

The Kindle store has been growing very quickly…on the average, the US store has been adding about 1000 titles a day.

When it first opened, there were fewer than 100,000 titles.  Now, just a few years later, it is at three-quarters of a million titles (750,814). 

The number does vary for other regions…I don’t know that any have more than the US, and I do know that some have fewer. 

Of course, you can also get books for your Kindle from other sources…2.5  million text titles roughly from http://www.archive.org , for example.

Still, it’s an exciting milestone to pass.  If we have to wait 250 days to hit a million, that will obviously be next year.
