What can also be found in that article is that, whilst e-books are outselling paperbacks, paperback sales are also up. So, the increase in e-book sales is clearly not at the expense of physical book sales, and pronouncing the death of the physical book seems very premature.
That's Amazon's share of paperback sales. The other link today about market share has some figures on book sales over the last decade, which look pretty static.
With B&N dying it's not surprising that Amazon are growing larger.
I still see no grounds for pronouncing the death of the physical book. That requires figures showing that sales of paperbacks overall have declined significantly.
