Ask HN: If you prefer physical books, how do you read without breaking the bank?

I know tablets and e-readers are getting better all the time. But I still prefer physical books, esp if the material is technical or part of a textbook.

Please share some tips if you have any?

On a related note, would people be interested in a "book share" platform where people rent out/give away their old books for shipping fees only?

For example, I think I'd gladly pay $2-4 via media mail shipping for books that aren't available at the library yet. And maybe the book owners can receive a small "royalty" every time the book changes hands.
