IT just doesn't feel right trying to read a book digitally. I exclusively read physical books. I will admit that hauling them around when I move is a bit of a pain, though.
Years ago, after one of my many moves, I realized about 1/3 of what I was moving was books. I had far too many for my lifestyle. I would love to have been able to buy a house and have a big book wall, or room, but that's not how life played out. I got tired of moving boxes of books, so I donated all my books and have just stuck with ebooks now. With an eink screen, I find the reading experience to be exactly the same. Although I still occasionally miss the physical nature of books, I don't miss it enough to give up the positives of my much larger electronic library.
