Just listened to the newest edition, on story publishing. It's a well done explication of the convergence of media. Soon we will have a book reader as light as paper, softly backlighted for nightime reading, with an accompanying sound file so we can as our eyes tire, at any page, listen, for example, to William Hurt reading us Stephen King's Hearts in Atlantis. Very nice indeed. Thanks!
