Digital reading will completely take over. It's lightweight and it's fantastic for sharing. Over time it will take over.
I hate that not everything ever written is on iBooks. Man, I hate paper.
I read in all forms: paper, computer, phone, audio.
E-books are impervious to analogy.
I often read nonfiction with a pencil in hand. I love the feel, the smell, the design, the weight of a book, but I also enjoy the convenience of my Kindle - for travel and for procuring a book in seconds.
Like people would ever want to read books on an electronic screen.
A book is not necessarily made of paper. A book is not necessarily made to be read on a Kindle. A book is a collection of text, organized in one of a variety of ways. You could say that words printed on paper and bound between cloth covers will someday be obsolete. But if and when that day comes, there will still be a thing called books.
As useful as websites and journals are, there's real value in books, too.
I certainly don't condemn anyone who listens to audiobooks. It seems to me that any way we get good literature in our brain is worthwhile.
The Web or card experience is not at all going to replicate the book experience, nor is the book experience going to replicate the Web.
