+1.

I used to enjoy the occasional stroll through the book store, but only because it led to me being able to then take a book home and read the damn thing. The browsing is a means to an end, not an end in itself.

And when you add to this the fact that millions of books are now available for me to purchase at any time, from (almost) anywhere, and they then immediately appear on my device, as well as the fact that when I travel I can carry (nearly) every book I own with me, and can pick from any one of them when I wish to read, it's a no-brainer.


Now, I think I'll stroll on down to the Ford forums and ask why the hell those people don't just ride horses...
