Looks like I'm in the minority. I prefer books!
I love my e-reader but use it for out of copyright, free to download things. Its great for taking away on holiday and not taking several paperbacks with me, so convenient.
But for anything I BUY... I like having something "in the real world" that I can touch. I don't see books as a bit of electronic code, I see them as substantial "things" to hold. Give me a real book anyday. I generally only get them when discounted, so never pay full price. The thought of paying the prices they charge for many e-books is not something I would ever entertain.
