Different people prefer different things.
Personally, I don't understand why people would prefer paper books. But... I have it on good authority that there are actually people like that!

Now, paper books do fulfill a specific niche role for me.
As a religious Jew, the Sabbath laws prevent me from using electronic devices on the Sabbath.

So I still read paper books, but I try to get them from the library.
