I like the library and used book stores. Paperbacks for sale at the local library are $.50, hard covers are a buck.

Well, yeah, new books (even paperbacks) are expensive - the newest Harry Potter cost well over 20 euros... Still, I'm sure I could find *a* $3 paperback
Cost is one of the reasons why I don't buy books - I only bought my first Ebook yesterday; it was 2,50 euros instead of the usual 15 for a paperback... I already have the book; got it from IRC today - but I figure at 2,50 it's worth a try - plus it stimulates publishers to bring out more E-books; which benefits everyone in the long run.
