I get both books and ebooks. I know that when my eyesight gets worse I can just increase the font size on my Kindle rather than pay more for large print books.
I also have both paper and ebooks. For me, the biggest advantage of my kindle is the sheer number of books I can store in it…hundreds of ‘em! That’s great when you’re travelling, instead of carrying several bulky books, I just carry my small, light kindle…

You can also use the paperback to kill a bug.

Yes, but you can put a lot of paperbacks in a kindle. The great part is you can get older books for cheap.

Also, if you use a paperback in the bathtub and it gets a little wet it still works.

Plus, books don’t crash, get viruses and they’re not susceptible to EMP strikes.

Yes, the difference is you can carry 40 e-books in the same space it would take to carry one paper book.

It holds a lot more than 40 books, so you can carry around an entire library.
