Wow, sorry to hear that you won't be able to tell your grandkids about the time you went to the library ONCE, and that it was uphill both ways, the snow was 3 feet deep, you were wearing your brother's hand-me-down boots with holes in the soles, and the wind was blowing in your face the whole way. Oh, and because it was so cold, the battery on your scooter ran out in the parking lot.
C'mon. Your excuse to blow off free books forever is cuz you have to go to the library one single time to get your library card? You must LOVE all the free credit card offerings that you don't even have to prove you are alive to qualify for.
Don't get me wrong, I always enjoy your perspective on things and I understand that as a publisher, "free" books at the library doesn't put as many $$ in your author's pockets. On the other hand, we also have the old old argument that the typical pbook can be passed along about 5 times before it is trash (the paper, not necessarily the content).
Just look at the library ebooks as picking up the slack on the restriction from being able to pass them on at the next garage sale. Yer not losing money, you are gaining audience.
