"If you can remember the day you first learned
to read, you probably recall that profound sense of accomplishment that came
from sounding out the words in your favorite storybooks. But whether you’re 15
or 50, you know that books as we know them have changed a lot since you first
cracked open your beloved pieces of childhood literature. Ever since the first
spurt of popularity in the now widespread e-readers, experts and speculators
from all sides have been pondering the question, "will e-readers destroy
books as we know them?" Despite the entertaining back and forth on this
question, the state of the topic right now seems to suggest that, to the
surprise of some, books and e-readers won’t edge one another out of the
literary arena: They’ll merely coexist. There’s plenty to love about the weight
and feel of a physical book in your hands, just as there is something
delightful about the convenience and portability of an e-reader. But for
bookworms everywhere, it’s not simply a matter of which will destroy the other,
but rather which medium is better for certain types of reading."
