Some People Just Need To Be Kicked In The 'Nads
It's the 'e-book vs. real book' thing again, only some tit has gone and made a deal with Amazon to sell all of the books he represents on nothing but kindle. Naturally, this has the publishers annoyed, especially since it cuts them right out of everything to do with the money involved. It also has me annoyed, because I don't want a Kindle and I doubt I ever shall. Apart from all of the other pros and cons...magnets can't erase words printed on a page.
Still...I don't think it's the death knell for paper publishing, as the article suggests. There will always be a market for paper books, amongst those with their heads screwed on straight. I do wish they'd come up with more sustainable sources for paper, though.
Oh...and this can count as this week's discussion question >:D

Discussion Questions...?
...Should we have them?
I'm guessing yes.
This week - Song Lyrics. What makes them so damned effective? Or not, as the case may be. Got some favourites?
Come on people - lets get this site moving again. >:D
