Cheaper to produce as well as cheaper to buy. :) There are lots of reasons that people choose e- over hard copy.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04137538450232783883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381938904139198926.post-19726646755891783502013-05-08T13:09:30.848-07:002013-05-08T13:09:30.848-07:00Hi, Lauren, like you, I like paper books.

I tend to read more on my Kindle, but it's more a matter of convenience (and to save myself from wrist-pain from holding a hardback). And sadly, I'm just not an audiobook person either. I'm so visual that I miss so much in an audiobook.<br /><br />But that is the nice thing about having different formats. People can pick and choose what works best for them. :)Cherie Reichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16663147386014122939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381938904139198926.post-41149379252987521362013-05-08T11:43:41.462-07:002013-05-08T11:43:41.462-07:00I've come to grudgingly accept my Kindle.

The reading experience is... acceptable.<br /><br />I think ebooks will be the way people read in the future, but I don't believe the printed book will ever go away. I think they'll continue to make them at the very least as collector's items.<br /><br />-James.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381938904139198926.post-70176254077837544852013-05-08T09:01:30.327-07:002013-05-08T09:01:30.327-07:00I prefer hard copies too, especially of your own b...I prefer hard copies too, especially of your own book!
