Last year marked the first year in which e-books outsold physical printed books. This development has sparked a significant debate among individuals, with many arguing that printed books uphold cherished traditions. While technology certainly has its place, it is also unpredictable.

Supporters of digital books argue that they are more portable and virtually indestructible. Moreover, they tend to be more affordable, and in some cases, they are even free. These arguments carry considerable weight.

However, there is nothing quite like the comfort and relaxation that comes with curling up with a cup of hot cocoa and a good book. The choice between digital and printed books ultimately depends on personal preference and may also vary depending on the individual’s age.

With a physical book, one can truly immerse themselves among the pages of those wonderful paper materials. This is an experience that cannot be replicated with a digital book.

Another aspect to consider is value. First editions of printed books can be quite expensive, whereas e-books are often available at a significantly lower price.

There is also another factor to contemplate when comparing costs. While a physical book may be pricier, it becomes a permanent possession that can be proudly displayed on a shelf, and it won’t be lost due to copyright restrictions or software glitches.

However, both libraries and authors are currently grappling with the rise of digital publishing, and it may be a battle that they are destined to lose.
