I agree - I've found far more by browsing Amazon - especially "people who bought this also bought ..." and so forth, than I ever found by browsing in bookshops. For much of what I want, bookshops have very little stock, so browsing doesn't do much for me.
I my view, ebooks are likely to increase reading. They just threaten the people who currently make money out of pbooks.
