Not true, Majority of the money making ones are fake. Java for Dummies isn't. Your thinking of the stupid ass shit you download off HF.

I prefer the real thing. While e-books have thier place, you can't right notes in thier margins. If your reader craps out you lose the e-book and have to go find it all over again. Besides, there is nothing better than the sound of a hardbound book bouncing off the head of whomever happens to have irritated you at that particular moment.

I LOVE E-BOOKS. There wonderful. Because if you have three, five hundred page book and you are learning programming its a hassle to carry them but to have e-books great.

I disagree, I love reading. There's nothing like opening a book and traveling to another world of wonder and delight. Movies are nice, but for a book like the Iliad, there will never be someone who can capture the art of Homer's writing in a movie.
P.S: You may want to work on your grammar.

Agreed. It's why we don't have a monetizing section.

I wouldn't say people hate on ebooks, although people definitely do hate on monetizing ebooks, although with good reason. A lot of them are flunks!
I personally use a lot of programming ebooks and really enjoy them. Just like a real book, but I feel more comfortable reading off a PC screen.

People write, and sell shitty eBooks. That's the issue with them.
