    But if price was a concern, aren’t libraries an option? Buying new books isn’t very common, at least not in North America, where our bookstores have all but disappeared.

    I’d be surprised if there was a strong or growing market anywhere in the EU.

      Yeah, it’s not looking good. There are still bookstores, but more and more it feels like a niche thing.
