The only books I have bought in the past few years have been mainly travel guides.
Also anything that relies on pictures (art books etc.) as I have yet to find an ereader that can display pictures properly, and at the size intended. |

The only physical books that I have bought lately are author proofs of the ones that I write and publish myself. It's the same for music; despite being a creator of music, I have not bought anyone else's music in what...20 years?
I hope the public doesn't share my attitude.  [But it seems they do. I think we're screwed.]

I mostly purchase ebooks & audiobooks or borrow the same from the library. I buy a physical copy (usually used) for my "keeper" shelf if it's something I really enjoyed.
