So ... when you buy books, you buy them from companies that don't advertise? How do you even know they exist? And, with Kindle, if you find the ads too intrusive, just pay the extra $20 and get rid of them. The ads are why the Kindle was cheaper in the first place. Not sure what your issue was with the Nook Simple Touch. I'm guessing you're a lot touchier than I am on this subject. I personally don't mind a few ads to get a cheaper, quality eReader.
