Well- this is pretty cool... but I've already been spoiled- as have many literary minded people- by Project Gutenberg. While not scans, PG offers free downloads via text documents of classical literature.

I believe that Google is doing an incredible thing... and with the "Google" name attached- it will definitely be more publicized than PG... which is an unhappy turn of events, since Gutenberg has been around so much longer...

But literature to the masses? I can handle that~
