Why do I say this? I recently got 74 mp3 albums for free because I bought them on amazon, and they've decided to make a great gesture toward their customers. Naturally burning a CD is a lot easier than burning, oops, copying a book! Probably won't be free but maybe cheap enough to be tempting. I've got the reverse from the tech e-publishers recently: they are offering good deals on the hardcopy if you've bought the ebook. I've done that for one of them. But ebooks have another advantage: every new printing of the hardback gives free updates to the ebook owners. I've found that *really* useful, especially when the ebooks come out "still in beta". I've had over 25 updates, I'm sure. -- Owen
