Yes! I love reading a hard copy book. Best to collect any that the commies want burned too. At any moment, Kindle could "delete" what is deemed "wrong think"!
Yea, and even crazier is that younger trees absorb carbon better than older ones. No one ever mentions that we're planting trees faster than cutting them down. This might be why "wild" fires are so rampant.
Can it be deleted if you own the media on a hard drive or other electronic device?i have an mp3 player and seems like it'd be impossible for the forces that be to delete any of my stuff
I think accessibility is more the issue. In Fahrenheit 451, they went house to house looking for books. So people still have them, but they couldn't be accessed at a library.
I had planned on reading that book, given it has so much attention, just have not yet. It actually was required reading back in the late 80's at my high school ( my older sister had to read it). Needs to be required all over again I assume!
I've disabled wifi and 3g on my kindle and only load it manually with 'acquired' material via usb cable. FeelsBad, but after the shiest Apply pulled with its media, I'm never trusting digital content (except Steam) again.

There's actually a theory that the enviornmental push for saving paper and going digital is really to eliminate forbidden reading material.

Isnt that what Zero did with his presidential library? all digital, and no.. you cant have access.
Gosh, I would not doubt that! I didn't think about it from that angle. Go paperless could eventually mean Go Brainless!

Ah gotcha. I have my music all in electronic format but all my books are physical books. Which is good cuz I've got some authors they want to burn lol
I love my hardback books but kindle makes it where I can haul unlimited books around.
I have a love hate with kindle books but you bring up and excellent point.
Thanks for the compliment...I use Kindle too, but strange times we are now living made me think about how digital could be gone in a New York Minute!

Good advice!
