I think there are benefits to using both. There's nothing like having a huge library available to you anywhere and being able to take as many books as you want with you. I love being able to read in low light or the dark without a booklight and some batteries.

But reading a paper book is still so satisfying. So I still buy and read them. Mark-up is still overall easier despite the advancements. I am not as comfortable using my ereader in the bath (but I do) so that's another benefit to paper books. And no electricity required to power on. My ereader battery lasts a long time, but when it dies, it does so right when I want to read on the train!

I think they have different functions, and there is room in my life for both. Now if only there a way to increase my reading speed to supersonic so I could read all of the books on my extensive list!
