It depends.
I feel like reading a book can actually be enjoyed when you're actually flipping the pages.
It's just so much fun, know what I mean?
Bu, if I'm going out and the book is too big, or if I don't want to carry it around, I read it on my iPod.
But, I can't for too long because it just kills the fun and hurts your eyes, lol

I have read both books: actual n online. But, I prefer actual books. e-books feel like I have not read at all. Actual books can be held the way you want, wherever you want but e-books require one position and there is a strain by reading from a computer. As much as possible, I try to avoid it.

I prefer actual books because I find it more relaxing.. you know snuggle up with a cup of coffee and book when its raining outside :) Reading from pdf is not the same, although I do not mind reading pdf when the particular book is not available anywhere. pdf is more easily available than an actual book so which is good thing. So both :P

I prefer reading actual books to e books.But i have gotten used to reading e books.
Acquiring e books is much easier and more practical.

i mostly read ebooks ... hardly ever read an actual book...

ebooks are better for me because when i do not understand the meaning of a certain word, i immediately open up a dictionary and search for it.. or even when i read about some new places mentioned in the book i google them up just to see what the place actually looks like... so its very much helpful that way..

Actual ones are so much more better, to be honest. I can carry them to school and practically everywhere.

PDFs are good too, but you can't access them from anywhere and everywhere.
I don't have a HUGE preference, since I'm okay with both. But reading online strains my eyes a bit, and I already wear specs. =/
