I definately prefer E-Books. For one thing, my bookshelf is already too full of books to begin with. Uploading books onto the computer is definately more convienent and less clutter. Ironically, if I love the E-Book I will HAVE to buy the books in print,(like the Heaven Sent and Dark Elves books for example) so I can read and re-read them if the computer is in use or I am traveling.

E-book for sure! I have a kindle… and lots of formats work for the kindle. Plus, like someone said earlier… more privacy! Jeez, those covers can be smokin!!!

I am an ebook reader, primarily, because it is an expensive habit to keep up! If there is anything I particularly love I then usually get it in pb. There is still nothing like reading an actual book!

I like them both … or i should say which ever one comes out first when i really want that story … e-books are cheap and easy to have access … physical books look good on book shelf … so both

:winks:

I like reading, doesn’t matter which format they are in.

I do wish I could have all my paper books scanned and added to my ebook library. That way I wouldn’t have to dig through all my boxes in storage to find the book I want to read at the moment.

Reading ebooks are easier when you work around computer/mobile devices. Paper books are easier when no computer/mobile devices are available.

I’m willing to do either format. I like the reduced price of e-books,but I realize that they won’t be as durable. Without the technology and software, they simply don’t exist.
I like being able to hold my books. I like that I’m not tied to a machine and a power source (batteries, AC, or what have you) to read them. I do realize that paper isn’t permanent either. It decays, it burns, it gets wet, and so on and so forth.
But, in the end, I think the print books have a better shot of outliving me to find another reader than the e-books do.

Hey Jet!

I like ebooks but as I found out, if your computer craps the bed, like mine did, your out of luck with ebooks and you have to re-buy them.

I think ebooks are amazing! Plus there are various titles on ebook that you wouldn’t find in print. I’m pretty much in between print books and ebooks. It’s also a matter of convenience. Sometimes people might not have time to stop at a bookstore. But, who doesn’t have time to surf the net.

I prefer ebooks now, if you’d asked me a year ago I wouldn’t have answered the same. But, with my ebookreader my preference has totally changed. I’ve also completely run out of room in my house. LOL
