Bob--
I caught that thread you posted about the feasability of scanning physical books.
The inability to transfer extant libraries is disappointing, though not surprisng.
Not to harp on a subject, but I believe that DRM, how we as consumers react to practices and how companies adapt their own models, is an important part of the evolution of e-text.
I fully agree with you on the notion of the Reader establishing legitimcacy for e-texts.
Content --or lack thereof--is still the biggest obstacle to me adopting this.
