Not mentioned is that printed books for 'seniors' (big type) looks like a blob of ink on a page. Also the printed books are using the 'clean looking' format that is really for saving ink; the very fine/thin letters make it hard to read by us needing to have bifocals or reading glasses.
I have a few books that use lawyer's print (very fine print) that I want to read now but is a strain on the eyes. A friend has the same problem & often borrow books from the library & do not read the printed book as pbooks are printed for those with 20/20 or better eyesight; no text size adjustments.
No backups. I've lost many text books that were still in cartons in the apt's storeroom/closet; the termite exterminators found that the books were a mess & asked if I still wanted to keep them....ugh.
Also much easier to grab a tablet & leave when emergencies arise. And I still need a dedicated device to read books as in reading glasses for both ebooks & printed books.
