I still occasionally buy physical books for several reasons:
  • It's a reference book I want want to be able to flick through it quickly, references several pages in quick succession.
  • It has complex formatting that works best on a physical page
  • It's an old book that I want for scanning

Mostly the last reason. I really don't buy many physical books any more.
