Personally, I don't want a paper copy and a digital copy. One of the great things about digital books is the ability to purge the stacks and stacks of paper books I've acquired over the years.
They take up a lot of space, must be dusted, stored, and boxed and carried if we move.
I still have paper books, but far fewer than what I had when I got my first Kindle in 2009. I'll always have some paper books, some hardback favorites, Bible study types, gifts, but little by little they are being thinned out. I do like seeing books, so most every room in my house have some.
We do have a lot of kids books in paper form, for when the grands visit.
Amazon has the Match-Book program, where you can sometimes by a digital copy at a reduced price if you buy the paper version from them. But most publishers didn't join the program, and only a few books I've bought over the years are offered.
