Bye Bye Books

I don't think Kindle will render books obsolete, but TPM thinks it will. He cites print newspapers as an example of how quickly established media can quickly come to pass.

On the flip side, I just bought hardcopies of McKee's STORY and Woodward's THE WAR WITHIN from the Salvation Army for $2 each. I also bought SOME GIRLS and EVERYONE KNOWS THIS IS NOWHERE, amongst other records for $1 each at a garage sale.

I'm perfectly happy for the world to hand away incredible work - stuff which will entertain and educate me for days for the same cost of a beer at Finn McCools.
