I do know that I can probably read any book I want if I use the library more often. But, I prefer to have a Kindle and buy ebooks. That is my choice.
Talk about biting the hand that feeds you. But, you've to to admit, there is no such thing as bad publicity. Evidenced by this thread.

Thank ghod i take up three, then...
I read his post over on Amazon. I would recommend everyone to do the same. He fears that the switch from paper books to electronic readers will leave behind those, like himself, who are growing up in poverty and unable to afford the readers. He fears Jeff Bezos' desire to "change the way people read." I feel that his concerns are much better presented in that post. He also thanks all of us for giving him something to laugh at in the reactio to his thoughts.
