Given I can't get a lot of out-of-print musical recordings and the whole iTunes thing has put a huge dent in the used CD stores (where I find the weirdest but coolest stuff along with the out-of-print stuff), I'd rather have the used bookstores than electronic access because anything in copyright yet out-of-print is not likely to be available.
