Winner will get a e copy gifted by Ednah in the format required. What would you rather read, Print - or E format and why ?Me I love to be able to get a book I really want asap, and some are not available in print so its an e copy or nothing. I do prefer Print to feel and smell the book, have it signed sometimes to oggle ;D but with the availability of instantly gettin ga book in my mittens E format is exciting and instant !!! I will always pick Print in preference But I dont mind E format at all !! Attachments:

I definitely prefer print copies-I have lost all of my ebooks when my computer crashed due to a virus once. I also like being able to physically hold...ok, smell too >< the book and flip immediately to my favorite parts. I still haven't quite transitioned over to getting ebooks only yet. edysicecreamlover18ATgmailDOTcom

I love the smell of a good book, e-books are great but it has nothing on the smell of a new book.

I love print but I am getting used to ebooks. There is just something about holding those books and the smell of ink

NOTHING beats an actual book for me...however I'm not always able to get the books I want in print and so I do have to purchase e books sometimes I'm starting to get a better handle on e books now.

I prefer the print for the feel and smell of the books. But I also don't mind e-copies. I'm getting used to them more and more lately. Still, they can't completly replace printed ones

Ok, this is a stickler for me. My preference is to ALWAYS have the print version. I just love my books and I'm very attached. However, I do like e copies because they are easier to carry around. Yes, I'm one of those people who travels with a bag full of books. So, I do have a kindle. But if I have a choice, I will almost always pick up a print copy.

I absolutely love printed copies BUT it's not easy for me to get access to them. Bookdepo doesn't ship free to my country & Amazon it's great but with the monetary change & shipping cost there is no way I can afford to buy all I want in printed versions so ebooks are a great solution to me

Ofcourse I love printed copies but I do love my kindle and the easy access of purchasing a book anytime it is available. I have almost 300 books on my kindle now and if that were printed. I would been in trouble with my husband. LOL I love to be able to reread my books. So definitely love the ebooks.

I would rather printed books myself. I dont have to plug it in, check the power, squint at a screen, worry about damaging it if I drop or hit it. Ebooks are great but since I can be hard on the books I own, I would rather a print book.

I'm really about 50/50 on the subject. I love the ease of my Kindle, having all of my books right there so I can read whatever I'm in the mood for at any given time, or if I'm out and I finish a book, I already have another right there waiting for me. But I will never give up paper books, either. I love to hold them, I love to turn the pages, I love to feel them and smell them! That sounds kinda creepy, doesn't it?! I think anybody who loves to read paper books will understand what I mean, though

I love my e-reader but I still perfer paper copies! But as I get use to it I love the e-reader more and more! I like that you can take a hole stack of books with you in your purse and it isn't weighing you down!!
