I've been noticing some senior citizens - my guess in their late sixties through eighties - reading from electronic book readers. This is a sign that even seniors (who statistically tend not to use the internet, e-mail, or cell phones, or social networking sites) are taking to the light weight and less-expensive-than-a-paper-copy download. At the library electronic books are also downloadable at no charge. There is no renewal. When the book is due it goes poof! So no chance of a library fine.
HOW DOES A WRITER GET PAID for books that go poof?
