It depends on the type of book. A lot of what I buy is cook books and craft books, so I will not be buying those in ebook format anyway. For fiction, I will continue to purchase hard cover books of a small number of authors, but for most of the others I will only purchase the ebook. Since I started buying ebooks, I have almost doubled my monthly book spending. Impulse shopping is so much easier now. The purchase of ebooks may represent a lost print sale, but in the end the publishers and authors are getting much more money out of me.
