Obligatory Elitist Chidings

Amazon says:

As further proof of how digital media dominate today's entertainment, Amazon announced Thursday that its customers now buy more e-books for its Kindle device than all print books -- hardcover and paperback -- combined.

IT'S F**KING AMAZING WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU FINALLY DROP THE PRICE TO LOWER THAN THAT OF THE PRINTED VERSIONS that we all knew were by far more expensive to distribute and get into stores/homes.

Note: It's not that the record companies have yet to figure out that no one wants in on a "deal" where they know they're being screwed (i.e., paying no less for mp3s than they would a plastic CD)... it's that they don't care. The last thing the record labels want is to actually sell you music.
