Speaking of the people behind the paper book, did we know that when we bought digital cameras that we'd be singing the death knoll for the 35mm film? Well, we did and it's now dead. So, please buy more eBooks and help kill off the pBook. If the pBook is what's causing the agency model because the publishers don't want hardcover sales to suffer, let's help kill off the paper books and make eBooks reasonably priced once again.
