    Would you prefer ebook compared to normal physical books? What is your choice? Is it okay to have only all ebooks as your collection or would you only prefer real physical books as your collection for reading, if given a chance.

    I would prefer ebook to normal physical books. I can save physical space by storing all the ebooks inside my computer instead of placing them on shelves. Currently, all my physical books are taking all the shelves till I don't have the space for more books. haha..

    It depends on what the book are about..fiction I still prefer hard copy but ebooks are okay...but non fiction (like useful non fiction)I need real books...

    I also prefer audio books over ebooks. Especially so with marketing books so I can hear them when I drive or something... But nothing beats real books

    I prefer digital books (audio and ebooks) because I can bring tons of it anywhere I go. And they cost very much lesser than physical books.

    Lots of benefits and outweighs everything a physical book can offer.

    Depends on what it is both have their advantages, I like ebooks b/c I can read them at work on my computer when I'm bored and have less a risk getting caught :D
