"E-books are going to be more prevalent as time goes on. Pretty soon people will be publishing books electronically and even the large distributors will see sales fall."

If you read science fiction, and are even slightly to the right, try www.baen.com

They use the "Old Dope Peddlar" model: "try it, you'll like it!" Specifically, check out the Baen Free Library, where you can download whole books for free (older stuff, but often well worth reading if SF is your bag). They also have the first few chapters of a number of books posted for those who want to check them out, and you can buy ebooks, paper, or hardback, from the site.

Honor Harrington rules, maybe the most interesting military speculative fiction of the last quarter century.
