I like the bookness of books. I love a nice hardback book with good
paper pages. I especially like if the cover is leather and the pages are
the old fashioned uneven style. Even if I replaced my paperbacks with
electronic books I'd still want to buy hard backs of my favorites.
I like the searchability and copyability of ebooks, but I like paper for
reading and browsing. When I want to quote something, copy a reference,
copy a figure into a powerpoint slide, the ebook is usually a lot better
for that. If I want to sit on the couch and read, I want a paper book.
