| The Sony Reader Store is redoubling its efforts to stay relevant by offering a slew of new features. The company has developed a new enhanced ebook section that is aimed at children and has a number of multimedia features. It also launched an online book club and a number of book discovery programs to make shopping easier. Today, Sony has officially announced its first ever ebook affiliate program that will give people a chance to make money on digital sales. Sony has worked on a new commission that will pay 6% on every ebook sold. It has partnered with Commission Junction for the physical logistics and payouts. This is the first time Sony has ever launched a program like this and the company is betting on extra sales stemming from book reviewers and internet blogs. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out. eBook commissions tend not to earn much monetary revenue for website owners, unless you have a copious amount of web traffic. This is more about people advertising on Sony’s behalf and including the company on their list of ebooks. In the past, people tended to just do business with Kobo, Amazon, and B&N. This is normally why links only pointed to those sites, and if anyone bought anything, the website owner would get a few cents. Currently, Sony is poised to release its new PRS-T3 e-Reader, which is around six inches. It is also going to be ushering out its 13.3 inch e-Reader, that is geared towards schools.
