Friday, August 11, 2006 - CC (The Book Kind, not the Alcohol Kind)

Just a quick question today, for those of you who read e-books, or any variation thereof: Have you ever downloaded Creative Commons licensed versions of books that you probably wouldn't have bothered with had you had to pay for them?

I haven't, but that has more to do with my general aversion to reading from the computer screen than with any particular distaste for e-books.

Actually, that brings me to a follow-up question for people who don't read e-books. Would you download of Creative Commons licensed version of a book that you wanted to read that was available in hardcopy, to save money (or trees, or whatever else might be saved)?

Lastly, an observation about life in the downtown core: I'd sell my soul for a reserved parking spot near my apartment.
