You think people might just be annoyed if free tv started charging, or video game or DVD prices doubled?

And for most people that read slow - if they can get 3 movies for the price of one book, and watch them all in less time, why get the book ever, if time matters?
Because things are not replaceable? A book is a specific book that you want to read. It is not replaceable with another book or a movie.
