Why would anyone in their right mind do all that, when they can download the sample of the kindle version with no expenses, which often includes not only all the information they could possibly need, but often a few pages or even a chapter they can read before deciding to buy.

Say our hypothetical unethical person (or HUP) wants to get an idea of what to read next, but there are just soooooo many books on Amazon.
Goes to B&M bookstore, chats up the staff, gets recommendations.
Goes to the local coffee shop right next to the B&M store (maybe even inside of it), and orders/previews the books on Kindle that were recommended.
