eReaders

[Shlup]

So far I've just been using Demonoid. You can also search Google by filetype and such and such.

Man, I think I'm sold on the idea now. There are so many books that I've been wanting to read or re-read and I haven't really been too motivated to try and find them used for cheap.

If you're spoiled like me you can always beg for it. My mom, her boyfriend, and my grandparents all went in on it for my birthday.

I love reading on my itouch. I read more books since I got it last summer than maybe as many as I read since I got to college until then.

Someone was showing off his iPad today to everyone. Him: "AND YOU CAN USA TODAY ON IT TOO! YOU CAN PROBABLY CREATE A BETTER COMMERCIAL THAN KINDLE'S WITH AN IPAD." Poor, poor boy. I have no use for an e-reader as I normally stick to one or two books at a time.

I'm probably going to end up getting a Nook eventually since I work at Barnes & Noble. The last time I downloaded a book from the internets and read the whole thing on my computer I ended up hurting my eyes (although that's probably my fault for reading the entire thing in one day. I only downloaded it because the book isn't out here yet; I buy most of the stuff I read).

Not just yet, but soon.. I'm not in a reading bent lately since I'm writing more than anything but as soon as I'm finished/breaking I should get out there and pick one up.

I'm slowly figuring out how to get manga turned into a PDF that won't lose quality when transferred to the Nook, and it's like 10MB a volume when I'm done. Manga everywhere. Consider the roof raised over here.

[Fonzie]

Oh god, when manga is fully supported on it, call me. I'll buy it in a heart beat.

[Shlup]

Well you can already buy manga through B&N or Amazon and it's not that hard to download manga and convert it to PDF. I already downloaded a ton of it and can get it on my Nook easily, but there's some quality loss I'm trying to find a way to get rid of. But, really, it's not hard to put manga on it.

It might be worth getting one for me for manga. I like manga, but I refuse to pay $15 for something I will read in about 20 minutes, and I don't like reading it online. An eReader would be fun for that. I still need to finish that freaky Angel Sanctuary manga.

[Yar]

Aren't they like a hundred million dollars? D:

I don't read books often enough to spend that much anyway. But when I do, I like having paper in my hands DIE TREES DIE

[Shlup]

A Nook is like $300. Seeing as how I just downloaded many hundreds of dollars of manga to put on it, I think it's safe to say I've saved myself a bit of money in the long run. Besides the fact that most of these mangas haven't been published in English anyway.

One of the next entries in my blog is going to be instructions on how to convert manga, and it shall be glorious.

I thought this thread was on those GBA things called E-Readers. Boy was I wrong lol.

I'm going to buy one in a few months but don't know which one would be better yet. I want to use it the next time I depoly to combat. I hear a Kindle can download from everywhere now and doesn't need an internet connection to do it. Do the others do that too? That's a priority for me.
