Resist change and you're helping kill your society. Contribute to it and help steer it, instead of whining, and everybody prospers. Bezos himself said it clearly; "Complaining is not a strategy." Neither is nostalgia. The future comes to everybody, ready or not.

Ebooks and publishing are a perfect example of this.
Those publisher, authors, and readers embracing ebooks and self-publishing are benefitting from this era of change; those resisting are getting hammered and, yes, "damaged".

You either surf the seas of change or drown.

Ever hear of FUTURE SHOCK, by Alvin Toffler?

Old, old book.
As relevant now as in the sixties.
