> but most people would just rather not pay

I purchase out-of-print paper books, but I would really like to get out of the dead-tree-storage business.

A couple of years ago we donated most of our 3000 books to our school. I still have boxes, though. Mostly textbooks, because textbook sales terms have become even more exorbitant than when we were students.

I would gladly pay for eBook copies of the novels I own and enjoy. Many are simply not for sale.

And textbook market is getting weird: either $200 each, or open courseware for little or no $$.
