Yeah right. Amazon is on the right way of presenting the content, so does Apple as well. In my opinion most people miss is the haptic experience. While grabbing a real book, where you can feel the paper, see flaws and crumples in cirtain pages (even have pages at all!) and even smell it, the digital form doesn't provide these experiences. Call me nostalgic: I believe that maybe those who grow up right now will find no difference between a MP3 folder and case full of CDs, but I do for sure but somehow the spirit gets lost. Maybe I spent too much time in IKEA and cling to the idea that the materia is alive and deservse a name
I bet you all know where you put your car keys but who knows where the password to you system is stored? There has to be a lot more than amazon to get the "feeling" and that's what's missing by browsing pure filenames. The industrie will have to come up with something similair or perhaps wait till all have adoped the "feeling" to the new media (remember how strange working with Windows / MacOS / Workbench, etc. felt for the first time? This was supposed to be a desktop! Nowadays everyone is used to it.... so future will have to show, if we need to adopt to new media, or the industrie shows us a sparkling new way of browsing. Heared rumours about apple working on a new desktop. Let's see...
