Amazon, Disney close to peace deal: Report


NEW YORK: Amazon is close to an agreement with Disney to end a dispute in which the online retail giant stopped making Disney DVDs available for pre-order, the Wall Street Journal reported late Tuesday.


Last week Amazon resumed accepting pre-orders for upcoming Disney DVDs such as 'Maleficent' and 'Guardians of the Galaxy', the newspaper said, quoting a source with knowledge of the talks.


Amazon has used the tactic of restricting pre-orders or the availability of an item during several recent trade negotiations with publishers.


In June it temporarily stopped accepting pre-orders for films from Warner Bros.


And Amazon has also limited pre-orders and slowed deliveries in its months-long battle with the American unit of French publishing house Hachette over e-book pricing terms.
