I will get physical books out of the library, if I can't borrow them in eBook and they're over $4 or $5 (or unavailable) to purchase.

I would buy a physical novel if:
* I knew the author personally, to support him or her and get it autographed
* My book club selected it and it was the only way to get it (in time)
* I got a gift certificate that could only be used on books
* If I was going somewhere that I couldn't bring my Kobo and I would have free time to read

Of course, there are some books that would be best in paper: reference, cook, workbooks. Magazines.
