Amazon to Cut E-Book Prices, Shaking Rivals (making Amazon a Monopoly)

we'll likely still have libraries. I haven't checked in a long time, but I know I read of DUers that download eBooks from their local libraries all the time. They are adjusting to the changing times and will probably grow their online presence as budgets allow.

I think the biggest hurdle libraries face, though, is republicans. They would just as soon close all libraries anyway, whereas I'd like to give them as much money as local budgets allow, if not more. Personally, I wish my local library was open 24 hours. I find going there to write a much better environment than at home, where I have the annoyances of the phone, Internet, television, and noisy neighbors with ultra-loud vehicles. If I could sit in my library at 3am, writing, I'd be in Heaven
