No kidding, I've thought about incorporating a book store. :)

if there's enough quality content (of about reddit.com/r/bestof quality, more or less) every month, I just might buy that as a $1.99 digital magizine

That's a good idea! There could even be separate subscriptions for separate topics.

What about a physical aggregator? You have a digital space where people can share ideas and interests, maybe a physical space would be just as interesting.

This is a really good point! I've got some network hardware, and other computer gear, which I'm too busy to actively use, and I'd like to share, but still kinda want to reserve for myself. I've thought, periodically, about how a community rental system could work to facilitate that. Low monthly fee, rentals are free, charge fees for overdue stuff. I'm not sure if it would end up being more like a library or a hackerspace.
