But why would a library buy a Kindle ereader when a Fire tablet is cheaper?
I realize that many (including me) prefer eink to LCD for ebooks, but I'm willing to bet that we're in the minority. Most of my friends that read ebooks, do so on LCD devices like phones and tablets. They can't be bothered with spending extra money for an ereader when their tablet does the same thing and more.
