I'm so angry at adobe ebooks. I have had to buy an ebook for a course I'm doing at university, because my library doesn't have, my campus book store doesn't have it, and I cannot find a hard copy in any of the book stores in my area. My lecturer has set 5 chapters of this book for required course reading, I buy an online copy from a book store, only to find that I cannot copy and paste the text (which I need to do as I am doing an assignment), and I can only print 10 pages per day (meaning I cannot even print out a chapter at a time so I can do my readings).

The main reason I'm angry about this is that computer screen resolution is 72dpi and a physical copy of the book from a printer is at least 300dpi. I get eyestrain reading from a computer screen, and now I can even print out a proper hard copy to do my work. THIS IS COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS!!!!!

At least 80% of my readings are journal papers or articles which can be found online, and normally I can copy and paste the text to microsoft word and adjust the formatting so that I can actually read 3-400 pages of text and still be able to see afterwards. I'm NEVER buying another ebook again, and I'm going try and get my lecturer to set an alternate text for next time he teaches this course.

If there was a copy in the library I could at the very least photocopy the pages I need (which is where I get the rest of my readings from) so that I could to the reading in a reasonable amount of time. Only being to print 10 pages a day is a complete joke.

If an author actually wants their text to be studied and used in an academic setting, they shouldn't publish it in ebook form!!!
