You don't even keep paperback books shelved. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 10/05/2013 07:59:49 AM

My point was that books will continue as an artform (e.g. the Pléiade), rather than as a medium (Tor). Genre fiction will rapidly become digitized; people who want nice books on their shelves aren't going to be lining their walls with Jordan and Sanderson.
