No eschwartz, I DO NOT "acknowledge" that refusing to reward a retailer for acting abusively towards its (other) customers is "irrational bias". It's called voting with your wallet.

Thank you eschwartz for that ignorant, egocentric and condescending rant.

Now if we could take your time away from admiring yourself so-lovingly in the mirror for a moment, let me tell you about the priorities of other people:
  1. Some people will eventually buy more than 3 years worth of books, and some of them won't want to trust Amazon's cloud, and/or download the complete Project Gutenberg collection, or Wikipedia, or whatever.
  2. Some people will also want to play audiobooks and/or music (which take up considerably more space than eBooks) on their eReaders.
  3. Some people will want their collection to be REMOVABLE, so that they can simply unplug it from one reader and plug into another (either because the original got broken, to try out a new one, because they have different readers for home and travel, or whatever).
