Android Market revamped

Google has announced a refreshing update to the Android Market , bringing some interesting changes, including books and movie rentals to users in the United States.  The update is available for devices running Android 2.2 or higher and will bring the ability to purchase books via your Android Market account, as well as rent movies through the Videos app starting at $1.99.  Google says they plan to expand this outside the US in the future.


All sections of the Market have their own slot for featured content,
and Google is adding a staff picks section to help users find decent apps. Navigation is also improved, letting users swipe through various sorting options, such as top paid, top free and top grossing apps. It's rolling out to phones with Android 2.2 and higher in the coming weeks.
