Go, Look: Matt Maxwell On The iPad

The writer and big-time comics aficionado Matt Maxwell talks about owning an iPad, which may be the first electronic reader to reach a saturation point with comics fans both hardcore and casual that it has a major impact on the print comics sales infrastructure. Maxwell constructs a pretty intricate and personalized context for this, but I think his message is worth noting: if a major event in terms of shifting sales habits isn't already here, it will definitely come some day. I've always advocated for the full-on pursuit of these sales because I think artificially supporting an infrastructure has a much greater chance to end in collapse later on.
