I've never read an Ebook. I like to have the book in my hand and be able to turn the pages myself. So I just like the regular old fashioned books. I don't think I would get used to reading an Ebook.

I'm with you! I have to be able to take the book wherever I go! I like reading in the car on long trips, by the pool, in the tub and lying in bed before going to sleep!

Well, each one has great advantages of its own kind. I'm very grateful for the existence of ebooks, only think of sites like Gutenberg, where you get completely free public copyright literature of all ages and places. This is an enormous treasure I can now read online, download to my computer, take with me on a little CD or my USB memory... great! They never loose pages, get stained (only my keyboard), or lost (not even in a crash) and I can give them to my friends and have them at the same time.
But of course when it comes to reading in bed, or a new, sensational novel appears -hopefully more than 1000 pages-, to feel the paper, to turn the pages... this is a pleasure of its own.
Reading is far the best way of learning and diversion, it doesn't matter whether it's ebooks or paperbooks.

I like both. I read books everyday and sometimes I read an ebook, it's necessary because somethings is only known in ebooks, not in books. I found some good Maths and IT ebooks when I search in the Internet. I love them. Thanx.

I enjoy Ebooks at certain times. However, if I am looking for a good beach read or a book to read on a flight I want an actual book I can take with me. Ebooks are great for my time at work when I need a little break and can just pop on and read a chapter or two.
