Red Herring, January 31

Online retailer Amazon.com said it has agreed to acquire audio books seller Audible.com for approximately $300 million in cash and short-term investment.

It also comes on the heels on a series of moves Amazon has made with the major music labels to free its music download business of copy protection restrictions.
