Would you download that e-book?

Of course, and it wouldn't matter anything about ads, because my list of favourite authors has hundreds names on it, and books I download wait years on my hard drive before I get around to read them.
It's just one click when it's free.

Same question, if the book cost up to one dollar.

No way, and no matter if it costs a dollar or 10 dollars. It's at least 10 clicks and probably inputting some passwords as well. I have no time for this.
