You need a reader. Stores all your books on your computer. You won’t have to worry about storing hard copies anymore.

I actually prefer books. I do technology for a living. Sometimes it’s nice to feel pages and smell paper and ink.

I won't convert to ebooks until I'm confident that I will actually own the books I buy. As long as they have DRM (Digital Rights Management), all you are actually buying a limited-use license to the book.

Remember when Amazon removed everyone's copy of "1984" from their Kindles?
