ebooks can't (or shouldn't!) be taken in the bathtub, or the pool, or the lake. ebooks don't crinkle when you turn the page. They don't have a scent. They don't have notes scribbled in the margins by my deceased grandda or aunt.

Real books don't crash; they only fall apart with much wear. Real books are my favorite house decor. I don't get eye strain or nausea from reading a real book. I have so much beautiful shelf art from my books. Real books don't have to be charged.

Of course Amazon is selling more e-books than printed books. They're the main e-book seller. - 30/01/2011 11:39:12 AM 759 Views
the free books don't count as a sale - 31/01/2011 08:01:39 AM 791 Views
Where does it say they aren't counting the free ones? - 31/01/2011 08:10:23 AM 773 Views
I guess you're assuming it does and I'm assuming it doesn't. - 31/01/2011 08:14:52 AM 820 Views
According to the Amazon press release, free books are excluded - - 31/01/2011 12:01:48 PM 876 Views
