I’ve never seen the conflict. I love real books - and have thousands.
But I also like the idea of being able to carry a thousand ebooks in my pocket for those times when I’m away from my library and I have a few free minutes.
And when I am travelling doubly so.
I like saving money and physical storage space in my humble abode.
Ebook reader is easier to carry and hold too.
Same here. The books stay at home but I take the Nook everywhere.

I agree - and the various devices used for reading will only get better over time.
I belong to a service where authors often give away ebooks to promote their work - bookbub.com. I have so much light reading from that I only rarely buy fiction.
I just don’t get e-books. When I read, it’s an escape from technology. Besides that, it’s real nice to have the book in hand to look back on earlier information.
ICAM!
