What's your preference? Why?

While I do have a tablet and it does have some e-books on it, I prefer the hard copies. I’ve always loved the smell of the book as I’m reading it. The e-books do have a benefit though and I will read them in a pinch if I have to.

Do you take multiple books on vacation trips or do you use your tablet?

I normally use my tablet. It takes up a lot less room in my carry on bag because it’s just a tablet and the charging cord. It allows me to take a whole hoard of books with me and not take up much room.

Do you prefer to read the physical books (paperbacks & hardcovers)? Or do you prefer to read the digital copies such as e-books on a tablet or e-reader of some sort?

Merged into the existing thread discussing the same idea.
