Although I don't agree or disagree with Rhooo's comment I can see what they mean. I read it as not so much a comment on the advice on this site but the fact that when you do a web search for alternatives to Amazon for ebooks you get loads of sites towards the top of the results saying things like you can get ebooks for free, visit your library! and variations on that theme, but because of the nature of the internet the results are very American-centric and don't apply to a lot of countries.
Rhooo was also answering busatcap 5 worded comment go visit a library then, whilst very concise just doesn't work in a lot of countries.
That's just the way I read it anyway
