I prefer an e-reader and digital books. I pirate them for my kindle.

• No space and weight so you can take them anywhere
• Piracy
• Can download far faster than ordering or going to the bookstore
• Can find niche or foreign books my local bookstores don't have
• Built-in dictionary and translation is just moah
• Adjustable text size or font
• Easy on the eyes, can read in the dark
• Can pick up where you left off super easily, no need to worry about bookmarks

I was not an avid reader prior to the Kindle purchase. I used to read comic books almost exclusively haha. Nowadays my reading habits include more book reading as well. The Kindle was honestly one of the best purchases I've ever made.

Digital! But only in a kindle paperwhite. Or perhaps any other e-ink screen, but not LEDs.

• I can read lying down on my side without having to roll over or hold the book weird
• If I drop it in the tub it doesn’t matter
• I can change the font of whatever I read to OpenDyslexic, which helps me read faster and with far less eye strain
• I can read in the dark
• I can highlight portions and take notes without permanently marking up a book
• I can long-press any word to see its definition. Same for translations of vocab I don’t know when I’m reading in Spanish
• I can get a new book in seconds
• I get to finally have an aspect of the third millennium technology that I actually kind of enjoy

I prefer real paper books. Unfortunately, they can't be pirated, they cost hundreds of dollars per book, my desk cannot accommodate by binder, computer, and also a textbook. If a textbook is under $60 I'll get it regardless if I can/have the e book, but that's because it's not from a big company and I'm not paying for some CEOs seventh yacht, instead it's supporting the person/people who wrote it.

I prefer either physical or audiobooks. I seem to have a hard time concentrating and reading books digitally.

ebooks. I read better with a back light, I have found, and generally read with light text on a dark background, both of which my tablet makes really easy

For all the logical reasons - space, portability, seachability yada yada - ebooks win all the time.

However, if I am reading in comfort at home and have the option I will still go for a paperback every time. Paperback, mind. Not a hardback, which have never appealed to me.

Digital works really well for me. My phone can carry an effectively infinite number of books. I can try before I buy with Google Play. I can grab library books with Libby.

For my kids, reading on paper is perfect. Nice big text. They can put their finger on the page. When reading long books, they see their progress as they work their way through.

Physical except when I need to quickly search for something, in that case digital.

Digital without a doubt.

• More convenient to travel with it
• Awesome how the e-ink looks just like paper and draws little energy
• Your entire library can take much less space
• Save the trees
• If it gets damaged, only your device will be destroyed, but your library (hopefully) remains (if you make backups)
• Instant access to basically any book (no need to wait for delivery or in-person shopping)

To me, my Kobo was one of the best investments I've ever made. Before buying it, I didn't really read many books

If it's fanfiction/non-comics, then digital all the way. But if it's comics or manga, then having a physical copy is always super nice.

Absolutely digital.

Reading Ebooks is like watching a movie on a (crappy) smartphone. It’s just not as enjoyable for me.
