Which do you prefer?? I was thinking about this because I read all of my news just about online. But for some reason, on Sundays, I love to just hold the REAL newspaper in my hands, and read in my rocking chair.

Books, it ALWAYS has to be the real thing. I don't think I could ever read a book online or on tape.

What about you??

I don't like reading a book online, too uncomfortable in this chair to read a novel. Books on tape make me wanna fall asleep. It's gotta be book form for me, i love my books.

When I am doing a big house project (like painting a room or stripping woodwork - old house, have a lot of this) then I like a book on CD.....makes the time go fast. But would never read a book online, not comfirtable ......love to read in front of the fireplace when it is cold and in a hammock when it is hot!

I tried reading a book online and it gave me a headache.

I read my news online but books have to be the real mccoy, love curling up on the lounge with a good book.

I have no desire to read online...I too like to curl up in a chair etc I have gotten books on tape/CD when we go on car trips, but that's pretty much the only time I/we do that.

I only get news online, since we don't get a paper and no tv. But other than that, I must have a real book in my hands. Preferably with a big mug of tea or hot chocolate, and some candy to munch, curled up on the couch or in bed, toasty warm under a blanket. But I also love books on cd (unabridged only) for long car commutes. Now that I'm babysitting for my friend who lives an hour away, I have to get to the library and get one or two. Unfortunately, they rarely have the kind of books I like to read there on the cd shelf.
