McSweeney’s Internet Tendency: Welcome to My Rare and Antiquarian eBook Shop.

Face it—eBook sales are up, analog eBook sales are down.

And when that day comes, not only will I finally be rewarded for my foresight and business acumen, but also I won’t have to avoid my landlord anymore. —McSweeney’s Internet Tendency: Welcome to My Rare and Antiquarian eBook Shop..
