This is just my approach - I'm not saying whether it's right or wrong: I tend to only read science and technical books electronically and haven't progressed to reading novels as ebooks. Most of the material I read is "free" simply because I find it difficult to justify $10 on such small virtual possessions. I do fully understand an authors need to be compensated but I'd also like to see the full savings from zero publication costs to be reflected in the price. I tend to buy hard copies of the ebooks I like (sometimes new, sometimes 2nd hand) because I like having a real library of everything I've enjoyed reading. My real library has approx 2000 books and is obviously all paid for.
