Re: eBooks and eArticles

There is some good points to the ebooks. They have republished some books that went out of print and cost a small fortune to get. I read more then the WW2 air war and found a lot of books that are of interest to me. Look at the price of the book about WW1 German ace Werner Voss "September Evening" compared to the ebook. I also read the book Red Star Airacobra by the Russian ace Evgeniy Mariinskiy which was a good read but I would have hated to have paid the price for the HC edition. As I stated earlier there are some books that just wouldn't be right for ebook (like Don Caldwell's new book). As far as pictures and maps maybe a download code with the purchase of the ebook (a little extra cost but still maybe cheaper). I find that I can carry my ebooks about anywhere eliminating the bulk. Still like to have a book to look at for information on a lot of subjects at home.
