The difference is convenience - a SD card will always be accessible, barring device issues. You can't guarantee the wireless connection will be available. Also, most of the comics on Amazon or Kobo are available only on their tablets. If you got them elsewhere (there are free comics or manga), you can't keep a lot on the cloud via Amazon.

Not everyone lives in downtown Manhattan and never leaves the nearest Starbucks or the range of a cell tower.
