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.
It's great to hear someone from Japan. Do you read One Piece? If yes, is it physical or digital?
