If I have a digital copy, it's important for me to have a physical copy, as well.
At different times, I prefer different media.
Until I can buy a book and get a digital version for either free or for a (very) small added fee, I'm just not getting on board with kindles (or whatever e-reader device).
Amazon did roll out some version of this book+ebook service a few months ago, but it included such a small number of volumes that it was virtually worthless.

- ryanklee 12y agoYup, I know. But out of the hundreds of books I've purchased through Amazon, only a small handful offer free Kindle versions. The complications between Amazon and publishers are deep and messy and I surely won't get what I want as a consumer for some time, if ever. Just thinking about the ideal situation for me, however unrealistic it is.
