Everything about the book publishing industry is antiquated.

I wish Amazon focused on books instead of ecommerce.

The real disruption of books haven't really happened.

I thought eBooks and digital books would get us there, but it simply hasn't changed anything.

The Steam (valve software) of books hasn't happened yet.

I love ebooks and audiobooks. But the fact that I can’t legally lend or sell them (same with steam btw) means that it’s at best a lateral step.
