A few weeks ago I was looking for What to Listen For in Music by Aaron Copland and saw that it was only available in paperback. I waited a couple of weeks while I finished reading a few other books and then went back to order it. Amazon had a note stating that it would be released for Kindle on the first day of February so I waited and bought that version yesterday. I'm glad I could buy it for my reader but would have been perfectly fine with reading the DTV.

I actually read DTVs on a regular basis as my local library doesn't do the ebook thing and since I have a Kindle I don't suppose that would help me anyway. My point is that I just enjoy the experience of reading and don't really care what form the book might take. I must say, however, that probably 75% of my reading is done on my Kindle.
