@marcprecipice what's the switching cost? Most of the books you will read you do not yet own digitally.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@avibryant for sure, I just don't love Kindle either. I treat iBooks as totally disposable, and read fewer keeper books, as a result.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@marcprecipice wait. Because you *might* not be able to read a book a second time, you deliberately choose books where you wouldn't want to?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@avibryant yup. The ones I think I might read twice I buy in paper.2 replies 0 retweets 1 like -

@avibryant@marcprecipice Obvious desired transaction: (1) buy ebook (2) if we find it to be a keeper, get hardcopy for small incremental $.2 replies 0 retweets 1 like -

@avibryant@marcprecipice I'd love an action to that effect at the end of ebook: "Enjoyed that? Order a paper version for your collection"2 replies 1 retweet 3 likes
@andrewcatton @marcprecipice this may play out instead as Oyster-like subscription to read it once, then pay full price for paper later.
