      I live in the equivalent of an American suburb.

      I’d have to go into town to the library. It’s too far to walk, I’d have to drive, which would mean fuel and then parking fees.

      Or I could take public transport, which would be two buses or a bus and a tram. The connections aren’t the best, so the journey into town takes at least an hour, then the same shit home.

      All for a few printed pages.

      My local grocery store is ten minutes on foot.
