While its good to see that books still hold their own (in revenue generating terms) with films & music (they outperform both), the big news is that video games generated more revenue globally than books & music combined.

As someone who has never played a video game, but reads a lot of books, I'm not sure how I feel about this... but it tells us something about where the globe's creative & receptive energies seem to be spent.

@ChrisMayLA6 @bookstodon Computer based visual novels (a genre I only recently discovered (when I bought a cheap 2nd hand PS4 last year!)) probably get counted as Video games, but perhaps should count more as a book, and there's a significant story element to a lot of video games.

For this of us accused of buying too many - Umberto Eco was on our side:

'It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones'

@ChrisMayLA6 @bookstodon I quite like to browse/buy from 2nd hand book shops (in person and online), but the idea of selling ever a book ... [shudder!]
