once you've outgrown the concept of linking reading to books, you'll realize that books aren't physical anymore, it's all digital now, and non-book reading materials are also online, and when you combine both you won't be going back to physical books anytime soon.

eh what? so you buy online > download > print out > show to friends instead of buy > show?
