Default Amazon

I've finally joined the 21st century and ordered a book from Amazon.

John Harrington's "Best Business Practices for Photographers" - on Jim B's recommendation.

It'd better be good, Jim!

The sad thing is that its cheaper for me to purchase it from Amazon and have it shipped than it is to purchase direct from a local book store. And this is the reason book stores are going under. I'm afraid I've just contributed to the demise of an industry.

Well, If the Industry can't compete.. So be it.
Times change.. If they didn't we'd all still be supporting Charriot makers and Blacksmiths.

lemme' know if it's a good book.

Too true. Can't be an advocate against photo theft, and then go steal someone's book. I try not to be a hypocrite.

Speaking of piracy: Competing with free: anime site treats piracy as a market failure

Make it easier to not pirate, and people won't pirate.

Exhibit A: Netflix

I know, I try not to buy from Amazon, but sometimes I just have to.
However, I do not, nor will I ever, give one red cent to Walmart!
