for me the biggest change has simply been the discovery of independent authors. far and away they're just as good, if not better, than stuff i was buying off the shelves of Borders. genres that are pretty much dead at retail like science fiction and horror are available and thriving in such quantities that i can't afford them all.
i just feel like i'm not at the mercy of what stores put on their shelves or what publishers decide to publish. theres always something i want to read, theres never a feeling of "meh, theres nothing i want".
that would be the biggest change for me, the ability to truly read what i want to read.
