Beautiful! It certainly has great value as an ancient book and a glimpse into the era in which it was created. But how many of us have actually seen it in person versus looked at a digital copy?
I love the way public domain ebooks can be copied and shared at will. Assuming the technology remains with us, copies will exist as long as someone thinks they have value.
My concern about a society mostly free of books is that access to electronic information can be controlled remotely.
