I suggest in future just getting DRM-free eBooks direct from Smashwords, because authors get the lion's share of the sale price there. The website isn't great but it does what it's supposed to do. (Smashwords republishes through the major eBook vendors, but then there's a slice taken off.)
Good to know that Smashwords gets the authors more of the cost. I read a lot these days, and almost all of it eBooks. I'll keep them in mind. Thanks for the heads up.
I've been testing various online vendors for good used book purchases (I'll try Smashwords). So far the ones that have made me happy are Thriftbooks.com, Powells.com, and Amazon's third-party vendors.
Linds: If you haven't already, please read Hell's Angels: A Strange and Terrible Saga by Hunter S. Thompson. I somehow never had. Until yesterday. Man am I glad I did.
