This, so much. I really don't want any rich media in my (fiction) books, thank you. (I suppose the odd static illustration or detailed map would be nice, but for me, not even those are required.)

And yes - I don't want to share my readings on Facebook or Tweet about it, and I don't care for the Kobo social life awards. I'll blog about a book I've read if and when I feel like it, and I don't need to do it straight from the book.
