   I definitely prefer a 'real' book but I will read an eBook when the paper   
   version is not available, especially when it's a missing part of a series.   
   Also, if you're going somewhere you may have to do a lot of waiting, it can be   
   handy to have a book on your phone to kill time. You Could carry a book with   
   you if you knew ahead of time you'd be sitting around but you have your phone   
   with you in any case so I keep a few dozen ebooks on it to choose from in case   
   I run into that situation.
