I actually prefer books. I do technology for a living. Sometimes it’s nice to feel pages and smell paper and ink.

I do too, and many of the books I keep are out of print, but I think an electronic reader will work nicely for storing copies of the classics, like Canterbury Tales etc. If I can get all of those onto a reader, I can send the hard copies off to Goodwill and free up several yards of shelving.

How do you feel about the new paperback size? I **HATE** it myself. I went to a lot of trouble to build extra shelves into my bookcases-for-paperbacks to make them exactly the right size for mass market pb's, and then the new size came out.

Do you mean that larger size? I kind of like it- but I’m weird.
