I'm a huge music geek as well as an avid reader, and some of the things Mike said remind me a bit of the arguments against cassette tapes.

I thought "Jenna Starborn" was pretty well done and it made an interesting read. It certainly wasn't intended to be silly or a parody in the way "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" is. Still, it will be interesting to see there are more literature/parody combinations coming in the future.
