What do you think on the matter?
I myself like both, ebooks because you have carry a whole library with you in your bag and it's light. As for books if you have many book loving friends, it's easy to pass on a great read, or if you read on the bus other people can see and most likely get them into the book as well.
I still prefer to read a real paper book. I find it easier, and more engaging.
But progress is taking paper books over, like most things.
So I think, even though there will always be paper books to read, e-books will become more popular as time goes by.
More authors are either publishing their own e-books, or using companies that produce them cheaply, or in some cases, for free.

I could never read an eBook... you can't feel an eBook, can't smell it... you can't keep your place in an eBook with a mismtached variety of objects... you can't turn the pages, you don't risk the lives of your fingers with paper cuts... so how on earth are you meant to live the story?
Until the eBook has a face, I'll never want to know what is behind...
I inherited a Kindle when my better half upgraded to a Fire. She uses hers a heck of a lot.
Personally, I prefer paper. Always have done. Books are a real pain bulk-wise but they're real. You own them. Ebook suppliers say the same, but it's easier to lose a collection of machine code than tree-branches, and at the moment the former are far too expensive, generally. If your e-supplier goes bust, your whole library's gone up in...electrons.
I've a few downloads, but for now I prefer to be a dinosaur. Because extinction's a long way off, I reckon.
