Top Ten Reasons Why Books Are Better Than E Books

The Top Ten
1 They Are More Comfortable.

Wrong. Flipping may add to the experience or something, but my ereader can hold several books and iit's infinitely more light.

I get papercut with books. How are they more comfortable?

2 They Do Not Need To Be Charged

Admittedly, it's a pain to charge it. Fortunately, it doesn't require much.

You should have done your research.

3 It's Gives The Original Feel

I so agree! I love to hold an actual book, turn actual pages. Also you don't get that brand new book smell with plastic E-books.

Definitely; just holding a hardcover or paperback book has so much more meaning than a tablet or Kindle.

It's true, real books are meant to be books. while eBooks are meant to be the alternative.

4 You Can Easily Share Them With Friends
5 You Don't Need To Be Dependent On The Internet
6 They Do not Spoil Eyesight

Reading in the dark spoiled my eyesight, you know.

7 You Can Write Small Notes On Them

E-books have a comment feature to substitute those "notes"

8 It Mostly Doesn't Give Headaches Unlike E books

My nook has never given me a headache. After all, you can change the font and the text size if it does. it doesn't have a backlight so perhaps that's why. If you have one solely for reading and don't want games or web, simplier models are great. Sans headache!

9 It Can Be Passed Down From Generation To Generation And Can Be Easily Preserved

The internet can pass content from generation to generation and can be preserved even more easily. As for paper? Good luck trying to flip pages while not trying to rip off pages.

Any true lover of reading would choose proper paper / hardbacks over E books any day. There is something quite comforting and special about the unique scent of books; both new and old (but particularly new).
