Certainly free of copyright books and e-library books offset the price of books that I would have purchased in paper-format. Many people buy e-readers intending to read these types of books. Just in the last month I have read 2 books from my local e-library that would have cost me $17.52 and $26.37 at Amazon. Both are only available in hard-back. I have also read 2 classics that would have cost $10.29 and $9.60 for the Penguin editions. My wishlist of books at my e-library is longer than what I can read in a year, and they aren't obscure titles.
