Would you rather read a printed book or a digital copy (eBook)?

Reading is one of the most popular habit in the world. But with the advancement of technology, despite this habit became even more popular, the printed books ended up losing space. However, there are still millions of fans of it around... Would you be one of them or have you ever surrendered to the digital copies?

I enjoy reading printed book.And I will always enjoy.Printed book you can feel it,smell it,you can fall asleep press your nose between two open pages.And eBook is somehow 'cold' to me. (picture credit: theawkwardyeti.com)

Hahaha... I liked that cartoon. Very creative! I also agree that ebooks are "cold" (I know what you mean).

If it's an important book then I want print as I highlight important points that I want to recall and want to easily find them again.

I love to read in book form. However, if the book is not available then I can satisfy with the digital copy.

PAPER for me, I do not care at all of ebooks. When I buy a book it's MINE, not property of Amazon forever.

@WiseGhots No one will never "close my account" and delete all my books, my paper books are in my library, mine forever.

I had a Kindle for a while, but soon realized I would much rather read printed books. I plan on going to the library as soon as this cold I have gets better.

@WiseGhots I would rather have a book to read right in my hands because there are days when I read I cannot open the computer to read it.

I like to do both, but I like digital more because you can find more books and free ones.
