Yeah, those are good ideas too. I'm not a big fan of running around getting celebrity signatures, but a LOT of people are. So long as that's true, I'll keep doing signings. When that avenue dries up, I'll move on to whatever is new. In the meantime I plan to continue with ways to provide A) a physical media, and B) a signature as customers request them. I'm not trying to stall progress, but merely looking back towards those who are slow coming into the 21st century and the "new" way of doing things.
What good is it if I alienate readers just because they don't keep up with the pack? I'd rather go out of my way and cater to every group I can so as not to leave anyone out. Because if you leave someone out or leave them behind, that *will* come back to haunt you later on in life. Maybe not right away, but it will. That's a lesson I've learned in living color from the tech world.
