About books.
The best situation would be this:
1. All books ever released must be converted to electronic format.
2. E-books must be accessible either for free or for a price which would be considered symbolic. Like 1$ per book. Sort of a public library version of e-books.
3. Paper books becomes a luxury, bought partly because of it's content, but mainly because of it's value as a collectible. Bringing some more profit to the author.
