First of all, thank you to everyone who participated in the "Blood books as one voice or dramatization" audio book poll. I appreciate you taking the time and, as I'm not an audio book listener, I found your comments fascinating ( Read more... )

Neither of those would break my bank. And I would have more delicious Tanya stories to chew on.

I voted for the singles because I already have a bunch of your short story collections in print but would happily buy e-collections of stories I don't already have. Provided it was DRM-free. That's a huge buying point for me. I realize that may be publisher dictated, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

In the face of your eta, I'll change my answer to an complete edition.

As somebody who's routinely facing shipping costs that equal or exceed the price of the books? (Not that it's stopped me from buying them...)

My answer is "yes."

JUST SAYING.

I picked the $2.99 option because I just automatically skim by anything for $9.99. The huge convenience of "there's a library on my iPad!" must still contend with, "And if I want to loan a story to my spouse or kid, I am deprived of my iPad!"

I am also bleah about DRM, though if I believe the source is likely to be around for the long haul (Kindle, Apple), I am less concerned about it. If it's a "download once, and better make your own backups" place, or someplace where I don't figure they're going to be around forever, then DRM is just a nuisance that probably prevents me from loading it onto my favorite e-reader app (Stanza).

I'm a sucker for a good short story anthology. =)
