Thanks for the read.. very interesting. I am ok with authors wanting to get paid for their work, but when it comes to some of them charging more than the actual book price (for instance Dear John by Nicholas Sparks which I really want is at Borders for 7.19 in paperback which I do NOT buy hard back, but they are selling the ebook for 9.99- makes no sense) If I am going to be paying more for an ebook than the actual printed copy, I should have rights to that book to be able to sell, donate or loan that book when I have finished reading it.
Basically, most ebooks for purchase I have come across have DRM which is basically giving me a loan of the book instead of allowing me to own it. I wont pay more than 3-4$ for a book that I cant do what I want with it when I have finished reading it
