I agree. This is huge. The Internet Archive have a large number of donated books that they scan and make available. Some of these are no longer published or available for purchase. It's an amazing resource and would be a huge loss to everyone if we lost it.

Some of these things are just fucking not found anywhere else, there's random shit that will be forever *lost* to time for the sake of some publisher's greed.

Fuck them. the IA is the purest form of the "Old Internet" left online these days.
