[citation][nom]gorehound[/nom]300,000 ebooks won't get me to go near any kind of digital drm files.I love my library and it is up to around 1200 -1300 books.mostly science fiction and world war 2 books and most are 1st editions.i also own over 150 vintage scifi pulp magazines from the 1930's thru to 1949.you folks buying digital will kill the real book market and i won't help that process out.go ahead and buy digital books you can not sell,never are 1st editons, and you really don't even own what you bought.[/citation]
No need to be so paranoid man. The demand for physical books will always be there. Do you seriously think that a company like Barnes & Noble would risk releasing an e-reader if it eventually meant closing down all their stores? I plan to buy a Nook when I get the chance, but it will never replace my favorite pastime: the enjoyment of holding a real book in my hands and reading it.
