Paper books and ebooks.

Some of us prefer physical books. While others prefer the paper/physical books.

Here are some of my thoughts.

On ebooks:

Pros:
1) If you have iPhone, iPod touch, and/or iPad, I suggest iBooks. If you have any Android device I suggest Aldiko.
2) You can store as many as you like.
3) You can use features of the ebook reader you currently using.
4) And other pros.

Cons:
1) You going to charge the ebook reader, when it has low battery. You going to charge the iOS or Android device you currently using, if you read an ebook your aforementioned device.
2) You cannot ask the author to sign in to your ebook.
3) If you upload the ebook in your house (or any where), you may not able to see other people's faces on the ebooks and paper/physical books being sold on the same day.
4) And other cons.

On having physical books:

Pros:
1) You can/may sell/gibe the book to someone else.
2) The signed paper/physical book/s can be consider as a collector's edition.
3) The books can be given to other people and unfortunate people.
4) And other pros.

Cons:

1) The pages will turn to yellowish.
2) Prone to being got wet.
3) And other cons.
