It's ridiculous to be asked to spend $10 or more for a computer file. Eventually, publishers won't be able to charge that, as more and more people switch to e-readers and competition from indie authors forces them to lower their prices.<br /><br />Luckily for us, there are libraries. I've made great use of mine, and when I come across a book I really love, then I buy it. But usually in paperback because I just can't see spending over $20 on a hardback book.jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16379986868264461919noreply@blogger.com
