Downloading books needs to be the norm for education.

It's disgusting how we create this culture where those who have wealth get priority access to knowledge that will help them further their wealth.

I totally agree. I put off continuing my education for a long time because of costs and demands on my time. Now I have the time, and I was able to lower costs. And downloading free educational books has made this all amazing (and affordable).
