2016年8月1日

内特Hoffelder公布8月1日,2016年在破产,电子书商店/ / 0评论已经过去十八个月德国电子书启动txtr宣布破产,而就在一年多以来公司被土星,媒体零售商和txtr的合作伙伴之一。现在txtr不复存在。土星发出电子邮件今天早上通过佯攻娱乐,它的数字媒体。电子邮件通知txtr客户txtr已经关闭的作用。(我套用;无论谁写的这封邮件显然是害怕使用这样的词“关闭”或“关闭”)。Txtr客户给出的链接注册一个帐户在做假动作,并建议做假动作”结合了数字娱乐的世界,无限的选择电影、系列、音乐、电子书,游戏和软件”。Txtr的电子书商店已经关闭,根据邮件Txtr服务器将关闭后不久,2016年10月24日。成立于2009年,txtr最初是一个硬件公司想开发一个Kindle竞争对手,txtr读者。最终设备被一再推迟和取消后退出了电子书市场底部在2010年中期。 (Amazon, B&N, and Kobo had all lowered their prices to the point that there was no profit margin. ) Txtr then pivoted to developing an ebookstore platform which it licensed to telecoms and other companies. It also loaded its software onto 3rd-party ereaders, including Pocketbook , and later developed the Beagle ereader . The Beagle was launched in 2012 as a smartphone accessory which would be bundled with new contracts, and then died in 2013 when it turned out that neither telecoms nor their customers liked the limited functionality (it could only read ebooks which had been transferred from a paired smartphone) or its 59 euro price tag - only 10 euros less than the Kindle. And now txtr is as dead as its ereaders. RIP
