   As much as I love the feel of a good book, reading on my phone is much   
   easier on my eyes. Having all of the free Kindle book sites trolling   
   Amazon for free reads is great, I have found some wonderful authors I   
   wouldn't have otherwise if I'd had to seek out and pay for their   
   books. I've bought their followup books - suppose that's how it's   
   supposed to work!   
      
   That library lending system is great -- sounds like an appropriate use   
   of DRM.  :)   
      
   My latest fixation is audiobooks. I've got an audible.com account and   
   am downloading some books I've read before and enjoy them on the road.
