The Future of the Book Is the Stream - The Atlantic

“What if you could re-define books’ value proposition? What if book-buying became less about one-off salesmanship, and more about ongoing membership? What if you didn’t buy books so much as join them?”

My hesitation with ebooks is the price. For what they cost, I want something physical in return. This subscription model would be an appealing compromise.
