I have to agree. After deciding to ditch New York publishers, I had the choice of [digital] print on demand versus offset printing for the release of my book, and I chose offset. If you want to publish something that is taken seriously by the publishing world, print on demand simply isn't an option at this point in time. There are a couple reasons why. Many people, myself included, find it annoying to read digitally-printed books because the ink tends to reflect light a lot more. Also, many distributors simply will not accept books that are print on demand. It's difficult to reach bookstores without distributors.
