Definitely books, part of the whole experience of reading is the collection, the paper and the fact that you're not starting at a lit up screen!
 
Haven't got an E-Reader(?) though I'm not opposed to the idea. Save the trees etc. Usually buy my books second hand. Have been dipping into the audiobooks of late. Loving it. Pop in the headphones whilst doing my late night delivery run and drift into another world.:thumbsu: Makes the shift a thousand times faster.

Kindles, kobos and other dedicated e-readers don't have lit up screens.

Interests me to see such a strong preference for books. With the dramatic rise of EReaders, the ratio in this example seems pretty skewed to that in the wider world.

I personally despise Kindles and Nooks and whatever else for a number of somewhat cliche'd reasons.

Biggest reason is that technology worries me, and I think I use it enough without reading on a screen too.

I've already been diagnosed with ocular fatigue, and it's only getting worse.

I'm a classic book man on the most part. I'm building a small collection, first one was Robinson Crusoe and the most recent Nabokov's Lolita, which is up to about 30 now and will hopefully triple in the next year or two. I can forsee a world without paper books, and no bloody way do I subscribe to it.

100% ebooks for me. It is so convenient for travel and I may or may not enjoy reading a few "free" books via torrents
