I know Amazon all too well, but what e-books sites are there in Korea?

As usual, Ttom is right -- I did searches for torrents + the titles I was looking for, and found bundles of books. It took about 15 minutes to download and unzip over 8000 books...even if you have a big memory card, I would not suggest loading all 8000 books onto the reader -- it took over 10 minutes just to load up the starting page.

I keep the books in a folder on my computer, and put a couple dozen at a time onto my reader.

The books I have already downloaded would probably keep me busy well into my golden years....

You gotta go to www.library.nu I thought it was too good to be true but it's totally legitimate. You can get almost anything you could get on Amazon but for free, and you don't have to bother with going through all those bundles.
