Google is making it easier for you to buy digital books from Amazon, the country’s leading book retailer, than from smaller booksellers. In the Android apps for Amazon’s Kindle and Audible, you can buy e-books and audiobooks using Amazon’s familiar one-click purchase button. That may seem normal, but it definitely is not for Android or iPhone apps in the United States. Google and Apple don’t typically allow seamless, one-click buying of digital items like e-books in smartphone apps, unless the

In its demo, Google showed Project Astra doing all sorts of useful stuff. If you forget where yo
