For those not buying ebooks or buying less, are you turning to buying them in paper form? Just curious since maybe that is what publishers actually want.
Nope, that just gives them what they want. I'll buy them used, that way neither the publisher or the author profits.

While I wait for the used prices to drop for my favorite new books, I'm reading free Amazon books and low-price indie authors. I find myself reading all kinds of authors and genres I never would have before and really enjoying it.

There's no way I will EVER pay even the same price for an ebook as a physical book since you don't actually own ebooks and can't lend them, sell them, or give them away. The price has to be at least 50% of the physical book price for me to buy.
