I do occasionally visit my local used bookstore but not as much as I used to. Why buy a heavy pbook copy of a particular title that I then have to lug home and find a spot for on the bookshelf (already full) when I can just download an ebook copy and read on my Kindle ereader. Plus I either have to walk or take a cab downtown to visit the store (assuming it's a day that the store is open). Since it's closed on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday every week I can't just go when I want to. Amazon and other ebook stores are open 24/7 to buy a book from. Plus of course there are the free books at places like Gutenberg and MR.
