Why Books Are Not Dead

HarperCollins bites the big one.

Yes indeed, they want to LIMIT the number of times an eBook can circulate.  Can publishers do this for print books?  Not on your life. As long as a library can repair the binding, a book can circulate.  (And the software will never have to be upgraded... but that's another issue entirely, right?)

Long live the BOOK!
