Tend to pirate e-books, but will check out these options since I know I'm not supporting the author and the industry.

One thing about the graph is that some are labeled as 'profit share', what does that mean? The yellow orange color gives a hint it might be a bad thing since it's not green, but it being next to environment friendly gives me the hint it is a good thing so now I'm confused.

Profit Share is good! It means they are sharing in the revenue. In this case, it is with your local libraries or bookstore!
