E-Books or Hard Copies?

Since myLot requires at least some computer know how I'm sure there are a lot of users who have experience with ebooks. I've always been partial to hard copies of books but in the past few weeks I've done some exploring in the way of ebooks. On one hand, hard copies are portable and easier to hold than a computer. On the other hand the internet allows you to get a book at the touch of a button and read it on screen. Does anybody have an opinion on which I should use?

If you can, get both so you can read it immediately (from download) and have a copy to refer to later. If this can't be done and it is a book you don't want to lose (due to something with your PC)I would opt for a hard copy. Then again since I use a place where I can save my files where I know they are safe, I would take the faster download e-book. If you opt for the download be sure to save it in more than one place so you wont lose it. You can find one in my profile that pays you to use them. Have a great day Kowgirl

I prefer hard copies by far since I can read the book whenever I want. There is no need to carry my laptop wherever I go to read the Ebook. Besides that a hard copy makes it easier to mark or highlight a passage or go back to read a passage.
