I used to always buy my literature based on a weight by dollar ratio. I demand a bigger book by the buck! If someone would ask me, "How was the book?" I could confidently say "10 oz/dollar"

Now with ebooks, I am at loss as how to quantize my reading experience. Word count would be helpful, but if they would tell me how much the paper version weighed, that would be much better! For those ebooks with no paper equivalent, they could decide on a standard font and page weight, and then plug it into a formula for extrapolating the weight of the hypothetical paper book.

Literary connoisseurs, such as myself, would find this to be invaluable!
