Look, I know this is site is called Mobileread, but to me a book is a book. I don't care if it's paper or ebook.
I don't have the same attitude toward backlists of books written by traditionally publish authors (from 30s or 40s) that aren't available as ebooks, and present self-publishing by no-name authors.
Honestly I don't see why you would even compare the two, makes no sense.

If they become available as ebooks of course I would buy them if they were on my plan to read list.
