		<description><![CDATA[From William Powers&#8217;s Hamlet&#8217;s Blackberry: The point of the new reading technologies, it often seems, is to avoid deep immersion, precisely because it&#8217;s an activity the crowd can&#8217;t influence or control and thus a violation of the iron rule of digital existence: Never be alone.

		<description><![CDATA[If I buy a book—let&#8217;s say it&#8217;s a recently-published hardcover—am I allowed to download a digital copy of it? I asked the question on Twitter and got two replies: Hardcover should come w/digi version, like vinyl!—@sara_mc I can&#8217;t comment on the legality, but I sure think it&#8217;s ethically acceptable.—@anasqtiesh I agree—as long as I don&#8217;t distribute [...]]]></description>
