I used to shop at a variety of ebook outlets but now there are all these geographic restrictions and the only place I can get books like Michael Connelly is Kobobooks. Prices now are higher than paperback versions. What the heck is going on. Seemed like ebooks were once about choice and now they are higher priced and restrictions. Anyone have any ideas? I may not buy now and instead just get books from the library. I am not going to pay more for an ebook than a paperback.
