Ever since I was a kid that I loved to carry my things around with me. Gameboy, MP3 player, Nintendo DS, Magazines, but not books.
As a kid I didn't read much. Actually, I only started reading avidly one year ago. When I got my Kobo Glo.
First, even now, I associate real books to studying. I associate ebooks to pleasure. Take it as you will, it's how my mind works. As a kid I was often obliged to read books against my own will, so I developed a hatred for books. Books were a punishment. Books bored me to death. Now, ever since I've gone "digital" that books are a pleasure.
I can take as many books I want everywhere! Just like I did with my handheld videogames. My ereader is to me now, what the gameboy was when I was a kid.
But got to admit though, I've been seeing a lot of bookish stuff online lately and eventually I will start every now and then reading physical books.
