As we ll know that in the past and maybe a little this day that most reading materials are gotten from the library or book stores. Now of course the internet is coming into play.
First have you ever read an e-book? Did it seem better to you than something you have to get? Do you believe libraries and book stores are going to g out of existance in the future?
I mostly read e-books now for a couple of reasons. The most important is that now that I am getting older it is nice to be able to increase the font size. But I also like the fact that I don't have to find space for all the books I read (which is a lot). I also like being able to shop for my next book from the device itself.
Having said that there are still some kinds of books I prefer to get hardcopy, most notably cookbooks. Also non-fiction books where pictures are important such as art history books. I have no idea if bookstores or libraries will go out of existence but I think they will at the very least continue to adapt and offer things other than books like many do now.
