Books or e-books?

How do you prefer reading books? The traditional way - have the book in your hands, or have an e-book in your online library?

I prefer having the book in my hands. I like collecting them on a shelf after I've read them. Plus, looking at the screen for that many hours can be bad for my eyes.
 
I don't do as much reading as I used to but when I do read, I prefer to use my tablet that I have and read e-books. I find it easier that way and less of a challenge on where I will store the books I buy and read.
 
Call me old fashioned but I would rather have a physical book than read a book from a tablet, I just prefer it that way and I love to have a collection of books on my shelves.
 
I don't touch too many books, but I'd go with a physical one. I really haven't been able to get into eBooks, or audio books for that matter. I guess I'm a traditionalist there.
 
I can decide to read at anytime on the go. And having to do it with my phone through e books helps me with that. Carrying paper books is cumbersome.
 
I like printed books, I like to turn the pages and feel the paper on my fingers. I like the smell of new pages. But sadly, I have now forced myself to love ebooks. eBooks are cheaper, easier to carry, and easier store. I once had 5000 printed books but I lost then as I changed house but I still have the first ebook I bought and have tons of ebooks
