A related note: this is one reason why publishers like ebooks (obviously there are disadvantages for them, too).  It's also why I don't like ebooks.<p>I guess I'm a cheapskate.  Well over 50% of my personal book consumption comes from used or library books.  Over 90% of my family's books come from such sources as well. I would absolutely <i>love</i> to dive into ebooks, if only to massively reduce the physical volume said books take.<p>But I can't, not without either severely curtailing our family's reading or increasing our spending by, probably, a thousandfold.
