Digital publishing in the future is bound to be some kind of virtual reality experience.
But for now the advantages/disadvantages of digital publishing, depending on your point of view, is that ebooks are easy to pirate and the quantity of self-published mediocre books has increased exponentially (print publishing is also 90% mediocrity, but at least there the bar is a little bit higher to actually bothering to publish something, thus cutting down on it a little). Oh, okay, it's useful to be able to carry a 1000 books on a trek for the weight of one and to search in the text. Apart from that, I still prefer print books. I must be a dinosaur.
