They could, if you stick with the classics and whatever new releases are available at your public library. My public library has over 600 ebooks now and these are new releases by best-selling authors. My stepmom is interested in those, my dad is interested in classics he read as a boy, and between the two of them they have yet to even visit the Kobo website for the Kobo they just got...

Assuming you're plannng to stay legit with your reading, an ereader will NEVER pay for itself. It will always remain a convenience purchase even if you find one for $50.

Now how am I gonna rationalize my spending thousands on eReader devices every year?
