   Not only that, but it, the media, smells better, 'touches' better -- you   
   can sleep on a couch with its openbook on your face very nicely.   
      
   You can get angry and throw it across the room more easily, dogear the   
   pages with more satisfaction and direct access, and chew on the cover,   
   if you are feeling especially backward.   
      
   You can stuff it into your waistband/britches more easily, and use it to   
   start a fire in the woods with it after you are thru', or maybe if you   
   aren't.
