Not a student, but a lit professor, and I wish we'd had these around when I was in school! I also wish more of my students would try one out; I teach fairly old stuff, and all the basic texts are available for free, legally. Which, I think, beats getting robbed at the bookstore (these are foreign-language titles, and they're incredibly expensive sometimes).

This semester, I've kept the book purchasing way down, and provided links to the free versions for the rest (a good chunk of the course). Hopefully it will encourage them!
