As the average number of printed copies in China drops every year, the possibility of e-books replacing print editions looks possible, China Business News reported on Tuesday.

In a sign that times are changing, a bookstore in Chongqing, a municipality in Southwest China, came up with an unusual method on Sept 28: sell books by kilogram.

Customers said they found the book price more appealing.
