Indeed, our household will be buying a print copy as well, as my dad got 
hooked on the books after I read a Braille one, and purchased the print 
editions.  smile.  We have them all, all in hard cover except Sorcer's 
Stone.

So Indeed, I have bought books that I have seen recommended, or the library 
has purchased ones for me, or I donate them.

So indeed bookshare in some ways helps publishers and authors sell more 
books, smile.

The vision must be followed by the venture. It is not enough to
stare up the steps - we must step up the stairs.

Hello Everyone,

That would be an interesting statistic. I can't wait. And another
interesting statistic is how many members does Book Share have? I'm curious.

Finally, and this is just a personal observation. I know some of us will buy
Rowling's copyrighted work in one form or another.  Even though I'll have
read the brf version of the new book from Book Share, I'll still be happy
when my paper braille copy comes. It's that Book Share will allow me to read
the book in my favorite reading mode, braille, at the same time as other
avid fans are devouring it. I've also bought print copies of HP as gifts for
print reading friends. I've also pre ordered a print copy for a friend who
isn't on any blind or book related lists who loves the HP books but can't
afford to buy them at full price. I guess the opinion I'm trying to express
is that even though many of us will download the Half Blood Prince the day
it is released, we aren't harming  Rowling's profit as our enthusiasm
promotes additional purchases of the print and authorized audio versions of
her writing. .

Always turning Pages,

Lissi
