I suppose my thinking is along these lines: if in the future there are only 2-3 places to purchase an ebook, how does a consumer find a book he or she likes that isn't by a MEGAAUTHOR? The point-of-sale marketing opportunities are slim. Bookstores allow so much more opportunity to a debut author. I say all of this knowing how much I love my Kindle. Just musings, of course - I may be old-fashioned on this one, but I can't see books being totally replaced by electronic files, a la music downloads. :-) Thanks for chiming in!Kristin Tubbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05657534927169563930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19560058.post-45791593775379694072009-07-19T17:01:28.620-05:002009-07-19T17:01:28.620-05:00FRom a marketing perspective - if you meet someone...FRom a marketing perspective - if you meet someone in person - it takes 7 times to touch an online person in the same way.
