    I would also prefer reading books in hard copy, because in digital version it gives me so much strain on my eyes.

    well the natural way is to read from a book (of pages made from wood),,, i have read 2-3 books in digital and that was a tough job,, but once started and interest made me complete those books straining my eyes badly.. but it is sometimes easier to red in DIgital like while commuting in trains or bus,,, but don't go for a 400-500 page book to read in the digital format

    Is it better to read e-books or to read books in print? The Kindle is one solution for those who prefer to read books on an e-reader. These are the reasons I prefer it over the alternative. read more

    My wife likes digital copies, because they are cheaper, she can carry fifteen large novels in her Kindle that takes up the space of a small puzzle magazine.  She can read in the dark without turning the lights on at night and she does not have to use space in our home or her office to store her books when she is done reading them.  The trade-off the use of natural resources to power the device, I am not sure which has a larger Eco-footprint,  the production of books or a production and operation of a Kindle.

    i always love to read hard copy which appears more stress free reading, digital appears more tough to me to grasp
