The bigger question around digital goods is how they can and will be disaggregated and recombined in short and long form mediums...

Scanning should be over in two years. Ebooks offer another way to work and I do agree... it will come. Probably a lot faster for movies due to smaller index and easy way to trasnlate. Books will take more time (especially for the novel, less for business books). But it's on the way that's for sure. Books are on the way with google books. Scanning should be over in two years.

People told stories by word of mouth and then by hand via manuscripts etc and then through the printed word and now digitally. The words matter and not the delivery mechanism. However, I do find repulsive the marketing guru's assertion that a book (whether digital or not) is a souvenir that holds ideas. God help us if that's what writing's all about these days.
