I simply love eBooks although I still have a vast collection of ordinary books in my library, both soft and hardcovers. But when it comes to my favourite, I prefer eBooks.
eBooks make having an enormous collection of books or a vast library fun and less cumbersome and at the same time gives very quick access to vital information with just a few clicks. I have a very large collection of eBooks on various subjects and all these are simply located in my hard drive both on my laptop and my external hard drive.
We are looking at over four thousand eBooks here. If I were to have them as hard copies, where exactly would I store them? not only am I saving space which is a big problem here in the UK, I am also having my books safely kept from theft and abuse. I love to read and I have always had respect for books from infancy.
I love to travel on vacation with a couple books to keep my mind busy but sometimes the trouble of having to carry extra items and paying for excess luggage leaves me wanting. Now I can have my favourite collection on a USB key if I can't take my laptop with me and that weighs less than an exotic parker pen. I just plug and play, that's all.
I don't have any problems reading from a screen, not at all. Some people complain about that and spend long hours before a TV set watching their favourite show, aha there you go. Ultimately, it all boils down to preferences. Anything that simplifies life for me is just fine as long as I am not breaking the law or endangering anyone's life or peace of mind. I simply love eBooks and they will always be my preference anywhere, anytime and anyplace.
