        The Amazon Kindle
        The Barnes and Nobles Nook
        I don't know enough about either to say for certain

7.   What, in your own words, is your opinion of traditional, "page-by-page" reading? Is it the only way to read? Is it just more "comfortable" for you than E-books? Are you tired of it? (You don't have to answer these questions directly) (R)

     

8.   In your own words, how do you feel about the Kindle, the Nook, and/or other means of electronic reading? If you are in support of it, why? If you are against it, why? Have you ever used one of these devices? (R)

     

9.   Regardless of whether or not you support electronic reading, do you think it's going to change traditional book publishing in a drastic way? Do you think that traditional books will become obsolete, in the way that records did when CD's were invented? Does this change the process of writing a book any, and/or what it means to be a writer? (R)

     

10.   Lastly, is there anything that you would like to add that you think is relevant to this survey or can benefit my research? If so, feel free to say so! Thank you for your input!
