Just because you find it to be expensive and not worth it doesn't make your opinion a given for the rest of human kind.

I bought my KA1 exactly two years ago, which boils its costs down to 10€ per month. As ebooks are cheaper than paper books I still save a lot of money on books compared to my pre-reader spending AND have a better reading experience.

I also use the library heavily since I got an ereader. When it meant going to the library to borrow books I never did that, because I always ended up being late and paying fines. I do read two to three books per week and used to spend between 200€ and 400€ per month on books. Now I am down to maybe 20€ monthly.

I'd gladly spend 500€ every two years on a new ereader if they'd cost as much and still be a happy money saving camper.

I seem to have hit a soft spot, please regard my comments as my own view
