Which do you prefer? Kindle or paperback? I have feelings for both. I work with both too. I doubt if either are ever going to be obsolete. What do you think? photo by pixabay

I think hard cover books are almost a think of the past. But, paperback books will be around forever. Kindle? This is a passing phase, just like a cassette/cassette player and 331/3 record albums. We use to rent videos to see a movie, now we seldom do this. As everything continues to move forward, modern methods will change.

@Spontaneo The only hardback books I'd ever consider buying were for college. They are too expensive.

For me there's nothing can beat the feel of an actual physical book. I can't read from screens for too long. It seems to tire my eyes much quicker than reading from physical pages.

@Spontaneo It's possibly due to these things being back-lit so there's an artificial light source shining in your eyes constantly.

I agree. Now that I think, Kindle books do tire me.

I like both Kindle has its advantage and so do the normal books.

I’ve got both. I still love the feel of a book, and being able to pass it on to people when I’ve read it. However for lightness and convenience I can’t beat my kindle.

Many seem to be preferring digitally because it's not safe to out side any more , so many would prefer digitally than physical books

Maybe a person has bookshelves with books they've never read?
