Samsung phones to get own eBook store in deal with Amazon


Samsung seems to be on a roll with bagging media partnerships for its Galaxy line of phones. First music streaming service Deezer, and now it's getting a custom-built eBook store from Amazon's Kindle. Announced this morning, the service also gives Galaxy owners (starting with the GS5, but more to follow) 12 free books a year. Users will get four "prominent" titles a month to choose from, which have been "chosen specifically" for Galaxy owners (whatever that means). Kindle for Samsung launches in the next two weeks.
