If you sell epubs on your own, then you're obviously going to set it up so that people can download a book after they make their payment.

But I suspect there may be a few people who are hesitant to make credit card purchases online. In this era of all-out surveillance, some people may also want their reading habits to remain their secret.

In that spirit, I wondered if some people might prefer to send an author a check with an extra $5 and have their book delivered via an inexpensive flash drive.

Have you heard of any epub sellers offering this option? (I was surprised to learn that you can buy flash drives as cheap as $2.)

Thanks.
