Ebook Vs Physical Book Reddit

Sometimes i m worried about bringing my physical copy to me wherever i m going because my purse is not necessarily the safest place especially for a paperback.

Ebook vs physical book reddit. I just got overdrive and libby but my library usually only has 1 or 2 copies of ebooks and a few people on the wait list. The one disadvantage with ebooks is that my family likes to share books and i can t give my ebooks to them when i m done. Every book i want takes weeks of waiting.

So it s easier to bring my kindle. For example i have two books on book collecting. It might be a surprise but for most people old school print on paper still wins.

Do you prefer reading an e book or a physical version. On amazon you can by three ebooks for 2 99 from some lesser known author or you can buy one got ebook for 10. According to the new york times e book sales have been falling in 2015 print.

It s the out of sight out of mind thing. A physical bookshelf is more accessible to me than a list of books on a kindle ipad whatnot. For pleasure i like to have both an ebook and a physical copy.

Also much more lightweight and if i finish my book i have a hundred more to choose. It s also lighter than a physical book. Publishers of books in all formats made almost 26 billion.

I think it promotes both. I always have my phone or tablet with me and i can sync my place across multiple devices. You re spending about the same but according to the publishing industry they are making more off the got book then they would the 3 lesser known books.
