Young’uns may have figured out that ebook purchasers don’t actually own the ebooks they buy, and you can resell dead tree editions you don’t want.

And younger folks tend not to have the visual impairments that make ereaders and ebooks a blessing for so many folks.

Your dead tree comment is interesting to me in the context of, yet another sign of liberal snowflake hypocrisy. If you are a tree-hugging libtard and buy ANY hardcopy books or magazines...you are a traitor to your “beliefs.”

I’m sure a protest against trump is in order.

Yep. Books is books - paper or screen, but if I'm going to pay money for it I want to own it. I'm also cheap, so most of the books I buy are used which means they are of the dead tree variety. Plenty of free e-stuff out there to read though. Gutenberg.org has like an entire civilization's worth of publications available for FREE! What a great world we live in.
