I was thinking of getting the e-reader or e-book and some people told me that you have to buy the books. Then some told me that you can download them for free.
Some questions you might ask:

I love my Kindle 2 very much. If you’re thinking about getting the Kindle, I’ll say get it and you won’t regret. Right now I’ve read over 10 books with the Kindle, and I really like the idea that I can bring and store all the books with the handy device. Besides, it uses the e-ink technology, it is really clear like reading books; and even I read with the device for long hours, I don’t feel tired. The internet browsing comes handy as well when I want to look for information on some specific area. My only complaint is the white case, right now all the Kindles are in white color… I think it will be cool if I can have a black or deep blue color Kindle
I suggest you to read this review from a top reviewer who is also a book lover, it outlines quite a lot of benefits of the Kindle and also why it is worth especially at the end of the review:

Hope this helps.
I would think you’d have to buy the e-book in order to download it to your reader. It’s all about intellectual property rights and copyright laws.
You can download out of copyright books for free. That’s basically books written before the 1920s. Some libraries also have ebooks that you can check out too.
Copyrighted books you have to buy. The price varies depends on the book and the publisher. You’d think they’d be a lot cheaper, but they usually aren’t. There’s some great bargains but lots of them are ten dollars a pop.
