These are Project Gutenberg titles, which are public domain and freely available on the Web. This has been a volunteer effort to put public domain titles into electronic form. This company has taken the titles and put them on a CD-ROM--there are other companies taking the same titles and reformatting them, then selling them as a product. These form the basis for many ebook libraries. For the price, the CD-ROM beats downloading each title at a time. But the key is the type of reader--I don't read entire books from my monitor, so this doesn't interest me. And I wouldn't print a book. Yes, it would work for research purposes......
