Response to Mark

I do agree with the fact that stuffing your backpack full of CDs for a weekend trip would be quite inconvenient and therefore, an mp3 player is a huge space saver. However, where it might be easy to listen to 20 songs in an hour, I myself have a hard time reading 20 books in an hour. Which is why unless I’m traveling for a week or more, I personally don’t need multiple books. I did say that an e-reader would come in handy if I was doing some traveling, but I’m not going to sit on my couch and read from a kindle. I think that is just silly. It would be like watching a movie on your computer at the movies. But as a full time student and employee, I don’t see myself travelling enough to make an e-reader a sensible purchase.
