Funny how you don't see literature fans condemning books being sold as files on the internet as much. It all highlights the inconsistancies between the moving of information over the internet and in real life. Burning/ripping CDs and printing/scanning paper are the only ways of complatability that come to mind.
Real life is so inefficient, but a lot of us love this fact. The question really depends on whether one is more comfortable with the physical matters or mental matters. Since I'm posting this on a message board whle being in favor of physical formats, I'm wondering why I don't opt for physical communication instead. Ah, I remember, it's because I'm surrounded by people who like to talk about themselves and simple things instead of discussing important matters.
