Where we differ, perhaps, is that I don't see the "Reader" as a way of reading modern paperbacks. I've never been one for the latest "diet craze" or whatever it is that 90% of the books in the "best seller" list are about.
For me, the primary reason for buying the Reader was as a platform for reading books which I can't easily go out and buy as paperbacks - mainly books which 99% of people have never heard of which have been out of print for a century. I loath reading on a computer screen, but the Reader gives me a way of reading these completely unobtainable books in a format which is a close approximation to reading on paper.
There's one exception to that - I'm a big fan of SF and Fantasy, and those I buy as eBooks from Baen.
Perhaps I'm just wierd but, you see, for me it's irrelevent what books the "Connect" store does or doesn't stock, because I don't use it.
