The lease price is about half of the bookstore price and I don't have to worry about reselling them. I'm able to search text, make notes, highlight and bookmark. I can access it from my home or work without having to carry the texts around.

I would gladly buy an etextbook if they could deliver it to my ipad or kindle or anything other than just my desktop. Until such time I will continue the Buy, destroy, and scan methodolgy. I am hoping that sooner rather than later the publishers will realize the market will embrace them when they are allowed to consume as the want and not as they want - well thats my thoughts anyway...
