One of my maxims is don't store anything on a computer you are not afraid to lose. This cloud reading is just another technological price fixing scheme. You obviously care quite a bit about misplaced commas, but the weight of grammar in the minds of all falls on a spectrum.

I like listening to music and watching movies in the cloud, but I draw the line on books. They are just too important to place into the hands of the corporations.
