• Print on demand is seen by many to have a promising future as traditional printing methods become unprofitable when doing small print runs (less than a thousand or two books) -- printing books as they are required, instead of printing and then hoping the demand is there. Theoretically this could mean that books never go out of print, because tools exist to simply print more in a very automated fashion (be it one copy or one thousand). POD is supposed to make it faster, easier and cheaper to print books than traditional methods.
