I still buy print books, but not nearly as many as I used to for personal use. I have time to read only so many books, no matter what form they come in. I want brick-and-mortar stores to stay open, though, so I've stepped up gift-buying in bookstores.
For me, print books still work fine when I'm reading at home. When I spend long stretches away from home, I tend to buy many fewer print books simply to avoid the trouble of carrying them in baggage.
Also, I still buy print books because the nonfiction I read sometimes isn't available in digital form.
