I prefer reading books than e-books. It doesn't mean that I dislike e-books. For me reading books is easier than e-books.Due to the non-availibity of power for sometime during the day, it will be difficult to depend on e-books.

I prefer books. Why? because I can read it by lying on my bed, and my eyes not hurt a lot when read in front of PC ^^

It totally depends on what work you are doing,if I have to read a lot then I will prefer normal books as seeing at computer screen for long time is hectic.If I am working on computer and need to refer some information then e-book is the best.Thus both have their own advantages.Also if there is no power supply then there is no use of e-books, normal books come to help. But if choice given I will vote for normal books.

No E-books for me. You can't snuggle up in bed with a good E-book but can certainly do that with a good paper book. What would fill your bookcase which to many people is an important piece of furniture.

I prefer the real books in my hand. They are just easier to read and more portable if you are at the doctor or some other place where you have to wait for some time. I also like to look at my favorite books on the shelf because I think they are so nice to look at. Pretty colors, different sizes.

I prefer books to ebooks because they are easy to read than on the computer's screen. If there is no electrical power, I still can read during the day. Ebooks are more convenient than books, there are not many books in my local. So I have no choice if I don't have books to read, I must search ebooks for reading.

Since the inroduction of Internet, I find myself ever lazier. I always want to do anything possible on PC. I have all my school books on E-form. I wonder what would happen if I go to a place without Internet. I am more an addict to internet. Please help.

Definately regular books because reading too much e-books on internet suffers me a headache also weak my eye side. in this age however ,some people like to read an e-books but most of the people love to read a normal books. Due to un-availaiblity of power it is dificult to me to depend on e-books as i have a habbit to collect more books as i read more books and collects it in my library. so in this option between books and e-books i prefer books.

I prefer e-books rather than books. I used to sit in front of computer all the time and and i feel sick to go out my comp. So, if it is e-book, I can read it in my system itself.

books! you can read while lying down, cooking, or whatever... you need not to be in front of a lighted box that makes your eyes swell after a few hours. (",)

I prefer ebooks. Since, I can get it for free. I even add ebooks in my ipod video so I can read 1 chapter when I'm on-the-go. I can even read books at the office without anyone noticing it. :P

Books any day. Its so tiring for the eye and boring to go through umpteen number of pages on the screen. E-books have their own disadvantages. You cannot carry them in you bag are read while travelling which is actually the only time available to read books.

Books all the way. One cannot carry ebooks in your hand bag or brifcase and read them while travelling which is the only time available to read them. In addition, going through umpteen number of pages on a screen reading an e-book can be tiring for the eye as well as quite boring.
