Tons of free books all over. Some can be found on this very forum. As for others, I think this forum has rules about that sort of thing. Richard Stallman is my hero. He so far has been proven right that DRM and copyright are going to be the mechanisms of control used to restrict and monitor your ability to read.
Well...some people's ability.
Now my point isn't that books should be free but they should be reasonable priced *AND* accessible if publishers don't want people to investigate alternative options.

I don't have to convince anyone of anything, that's my point. It's going to happen regardless and there's nothing the publishers can do about it.
