I wonder how long it will take Kindle type products to put publishers out of business?
I think publishers are safe, regardless of format books take they still need to be edited and published to garner any significant attention. Printers and distributors, however, need to worry; and from a green perspective this is not such a bad thing.

It is the independent book stores I worry for; and even though I own a kindle and I still buy hard copies of books I love and I buy hard copies of books for children and for friends (most of my friends have resisted e-readers thus far).
