I have bought only 1 paper book in the last year, and that was because I was goaded into buying it while in a bookstore. I do all my reading on my tablet (an Asus Eee Transformer): books, magazines, and web articles saved in Pocket.
Sometimes I miss the heft and smell of real books. I also like the look of a full bookshelf, and will miss the ability to browse around my library. But the trade-off is too great to pass by: having all of my current reading items in one very convenient package, always at hand. Not to mention the knowledge that it's saving some timber...

For the most part, I already have, though there are certain authors that I will continue to buy the physical copy of. I read enough that there are books that I would never want to pass down, but the one's that I really love, I want that physical copy. I also like being surrounded by books.

Traditional books all the way!!!!!
I love my traditional books! Nothing like the feel of turning a page. I won't completely knock e-books though. I guess I'm about 90/10 on that. :)
My kids love to read from traditional hard cover books, as well as a fun trip to
Library.
