Lol - there are capitalist corporations in every country, including this on - but with everyone moaning "recession, recession!" it doesn't make sense to spend my money on a company that's not even contributing to the UK economy by paying its taxes... grrr!
Paperbacks are real books! I've always been reluctant to buy hardbacks to be honest, just cos they're so much more expensive, as well as being heavier to hold when you're curled up in bed at night! *g*
I do the isbn thing sometimes, but I'd rather have a trusted company that I'd know were working in the best interests of people, not just of their own profit... This one looks decent, for example, courtesy of the Hag: http://www.betterworldbooks.com/
