A lot of those are older books and that's fine with me. I just began a book published in 1990, and that's probably one of the newer books I've read this year.
We live in a world of choices. We can choose to read expensive books or we can choose to read inexpensive books. It's up to us.

Ah but when I buy an ebook I'm using my ink and my page (i.e. the ereader) so why should I have to pay more for the ebook version than I would if I were to buy a paper and ink version of the same book? That's the main crux of the problem for many of us I think.
