I like all forms.
There are advantages to each, though as time passes, some advantages become less important others more so.
I still look for the cheap used paper book (hard or soft cover) for $4.00 or less for that "one time read." That is usually all I do for fiction.
It is also easier to use a paper book for common reference because you can put tabs in it, underline, highlight the text.
I commonly will write inside the front cover the page number of something I want to remember or refer to.
Hardbound takes up more room usually, and I have gotten rid of most of mine except some old text books. Not sure why I keep them. Nostalgia, maybe.
eBooks are useful because they essentially take no room. I prefer to have them in searchable, across volume, form, which means usually pdf.
I do keep a copy in "lit" format if I have it because that is my favorite.
