Most of the books I bought are ones I own or have owned before and want/will read again.
I work in different countries and spend most of the year away from home, and usually away from any decent book shop, so ebooks and a reader are the way to go.
My only problem, and it is a little one, is that most ebooks are available from US sellers and I find US spelling irritating. I would imagine the irritation is reciprocated by US educated people.

I believe that I read on their website that when one spends a substantial amount of money - and to me, $500 is indeed a substantial amount - that one gets an extra discount above and beyond the membership discount. Or perhaps that's only for the Micropay account? I always use Micropay, which is essentially giving them capital to work with - advance money - because I've always used my prescribed amount. When I have more books than Micropay will cover, I just up the Micropay amount.
Did you get any extra discount above the membership discount for spending about $500 ?
