The amazon Kindle and other readers seem to have decent pdf support. I was wondering if anyone had tried using one as a music reader and if so, what did you think?
I have a decent amount of music in electronic formats and a lot of music is sold electronically. The portability, easy page turns, and ability to organize your music seem appealing (I have a LOT on my stand right now, and a lot more in binders, folders, milk crates, and book shelves--often difficult to lay my hands on certain things).
The kindle seems pretty friendly in all sorts of lighting situations.
The screen size might be a problem, though perhaps that could be mitigated by moving the stand closer--ooh, or a lyre!
I know some bands and chamber groups use laptops instead of sheet music. Just wondering if anyone's tried a reader..
