But you do not read these yourself for fun? If not, you should try it some time. You will have a much deeper insight to pass on to your customers.
Here are a few things I really like about my eBook reader:
- More transparent to the reader. No pages to hold open. This sounds like a little thing, but the less fussing one has to do with the reading device, the more enjoyable the reading experience is.
- Traveling light: Reading a big book in paper = heavy & bulky. This is not the case for eBooks.
- Ease & cost of new reading material: Going to the bookstore or library to get another book is no longer necessary. Sometimes, it is still fun. But not necessary. I find myself going to the bookstore more now to hang out and have tea in a social location than to browse books. I still like paper books better for nonfiction, due to their superior display of photos, other visual aids, and more functional tables of contents.
- Free public domain books! Books that are in the public domain are free for eBook readers. In hardcopy books, one still has to cover the cost of the physical product.
- The only downside is trying to stay in shape. It is so easy to read and get new reading material, that one gets less physical exercise.
