David,

Books might or might not be listed with a UPC in the U.S. I think the
de-facto standard is to use EAN(ISBN-10 or ISBN-13), and *possibly* UPC as
well. Things like mass market paperbacks are more likely to have UPC, a
quality paperback book is less likely to have UPC. ... but magazines, CDs
and DVDs most likely will have a UPC code. That's useful, because we don't
have ISBN for CDs and DVDs.
