This. Although I will always have a few paper books on my shelves for sentimental reasons, I totally prefer ebooks as a senior citizen. I mostly sold off my paper books as I purchased ebook replacements. (Glad I did a lot of that before Agency pricing....)
I'm of the generation that grew up prior to things like smartphones, tablets, wifi, internet.
Paper books are now purchased only if I want to digitize them! Like some of my father's childhood books. Or mine.
