Music you could never really hold, its as intangible now as then, from vinyl to digital, but books, well...when Y2K finally does hit, and power is dead and gone from our hands, you'll all be cursing your kindles then won't you? You can keep your expensive gadgetry, I'll settle in with my paperbacks and a pen


I'm sure I'll regret such words when I buy one six months from now but today I'm bitter.
When the power dies, so will the music and the movies and the internet and the printing presses and I'll put a gun to my head and not worry about it much.

I like books, but mostly for the way the fill my shelves. They're about as practical as CDs tho...
