Just the title alone shows how closed minded you are. I can see uses for this type of machine in many situation.

What we call the internet today was build on these 'book' printing machines. Bell Labs had several of them with people to run them to print out design specs just for example.

If you think it's a bad idea, it really shows how little business experience you have not only in business but in the world itself.

No matter how digital and handy things become, there is no replacement for paper. There are just some situations that an tablet or notebook can't replace.

I regret writing the title. It is linkbaitish and does seem close minded.

There is a market for these, but it is small and personally I hope it doesn't last long. After using a kindle I will never buy, rent or checkout another paper book again.
