With the advance of phones, tablets, and ereaders, ebooks have become a popular reading standard.
Still, there’s something about the feel of an old-fashioned paper book.
Weasked youwhich one is better and why, and here are some of the best arguments we heard.
There were a lot of great responses so let’s see where you landed.
Waiting for the take away to be ready, I read a few pages.
Waiting pretty much anywhere, I read.
But, living in Latin America, e-books have saved my life.
It has rekindled (pun not intended) my passion for reading like you wouldn’t believe.
Can’t do that with a $100 Kindle.
you’re free to also leave it in your car, in your backpack at school, etc.
There really isn’t a good way to deal with that without print copies being easily available.
But from there I’ve moved to almost exclusively reading on the Kindle.
And there is the classic “Three B test” - bath, bus, bed.
For me, that is the smell of dust mites and silverfish droppings.
But I also have and love my kindle paperwhite.
So I think at this point my vote would be 55% e-book and 45% physical book.
I have both DVDs and a Netflix subscription.
I have both CDs and a Google Music subscription.
I have both physical books and ebooks.
Whatever you prefer to read on, it seems there’s no better choice.
As long as you get to read, that’s a win.
