The Google search engine already allows us to buy ebooks

Google search engine

Google's latest changes to their software seem to indicate that they are not leaving the publishing world. Thus, an update of its search engine, the main tool that has given so much money to the company, has inserted ebook purchase buttons in the same Google search engine, without having to go to a web store or anything similar.

This change to enter organic searches, that is, that users will not be able to pay for their ebooks to appear in the first resultsBut the controversial update has more than just the buy button.

Apparently, the ebooks that we search and appear in the Google search engine can be bought in the most famous online bookstores in the world except Amazon. Apparently Google is deliberately boycotting the purchase on Amazon and has eliminated the option to purchase through this online bookstore. It is also removed on Amazon devices, so it seems that it was not an error but rather an order from the Google directive.

Google does not insert the purchase button to Amazon in the Google search engine

In any case it's normal for Google to boycott Amazon It is its main rival, but it is striking that it only does it to Amazon and not to the rest of the stores that could also threaten the sale to Google. And leaving aside this controversial situation, I find it very interesting to add these purchase buttons to the search engine, something practical for those looking for a specific title or ebook.

I imagine that Amazon will not sit idly by and will do something, however I do not know to what extent what Amazon does will shake the great Google and its search engine. Will Amazon try to create its own search engine? Will Amazon remove Google from its devices? What do you think about it?
