Question by ♥: What are the advantages of the Kindle over going to the Library?
I really want a Kindle but the only thing holding my parent’s back is that they think it is a waste of money to buy an expensive device, then have to also pay for the books too on top of that when you can just get free books from your local library? If you agree with my parent’s, don’t answer. I only want some good reasons to convince them. Thank you.

The Amazon Kindle store offers lots and lots of free books – several thousand, at last count. Most of these are classics, but there are some scifi/fantasy, thriller, romance, and nonfiction titles, too. New free titles appear constantly – just look at the Kindle bestseller list.
There are also TONS of amazing “indie” books out there, mostly priced less than $ 2.00. I’ve found some really great books for less than a buck that you would NEVER find in a library!
You can do some pretty basic web browsing (google, wikipedia, and the like) and there’s no monthly charge – something you wouldn’t get with, say, and iphone or a netbook.
It might be useful at school – say you need to read “Great Expectations” for a class. With your Kindle, you can highlight and “clip” passages, make your own annotations in the text, and go online to do research. Plus, the book itself is FREE in the Kindle store.
If you’re really into reading (say, you read more than 15-20 books a year) the cost for the Kindle really starts to balance out, as the price for Kindle books is generally much less than the price for a paper book.
Save up your birthday money, do some jobs around the neighborhood, and save up – they’re only $ 259 now!
