Ingram is iPod-ready

Apparently this weekend at the California Library Association show, Ingram demo'd its new iPod-compatible downloadable audio products - starting with 6,000 Penguin titles. This would be the logical result of Ingram's acquisition of Iofy earlier this year, and puts them in a VERY interesting place vis-a-vis Overdrive, which for years has not been iPod compatible and which recently broke that barrier (but with only 3,000 titles).

This is pretty huge. Overdrive's only real competition in the library space has been NetLibrary. Ingram has not had as strong a library presence as Baker & Taylor. The chessboard just got a little more exciting.
