I've loved books all my life, but like many people have noted already, storage can be an issue. Storage became such an issue for me that I essentially stopped buying books a few years ago, which greatly cut down the number of books I read. I've had my eReader for 3 months now and I've read more books in that time than I did all of last year. Also, thanks to project Guttenberg, I can now try loads of classsics that I may have been hesitant to buy even if storage wasn't an issue.
I think there will always be a place for paper books, but it will be primarily for those instances where the book is more than just the words on the page.
