If I can find an authentic one, no matter what the book or author, I usually buy it. Nothing like a great small time bookstore on a mainstreet.

There are plenty of defects and imperfections in ebooks. However, those are "flaws" and in no way contribute towards what most nostalgic people think of as "character".
