Amazon’s selection of books is far bigger than Apple’s: The Kindle bookstore offers more than 950,000 books the iBookstore sells just 200,000. There is a significant shopping difference between the two apps, though. With each app now, you can purchase books from your Mac, and they’ll wirelessly sync the next time you launch the appropriate app on your iPad. For far too long, browsing Apple’s iBookstore was only possible from within the iBooks app itself fortunately, a recent update to the iTunes Store allows you to use your Mac to find books, too. To shop for Kindle books, you must use a Web browser to shop at Amazon’s Kindle Bookstore fortunately, Mobile Safari on the iPad is great at that. Each is free, and each is linked to its own dedicated store. The two e-reading apps I use most on my iPad are Amazon’s Kindle app and Apple’s iBooks app.
