Why people prefer a printed book over an eBook?

In these days is very common that people prefer to buy an eBook instead of a printed book. Some people now feel more comfortable using new technology because new technology can be very practical and can do more than one thing on an  e-reader. However I do not think reading eBooks are the same as reading on a regular printed book.
                My personal opinion is that there is no way I would Change my regular books over an eBook. I like to have my favorite books in my hand. I do not see myself with an eBook because I love to have and to watch all my favorites books together Besides reading I like to collect them. I have an area for my entered books collection in my room.  Every time I enter my room I sat on my bed and watch my bookshelves full of books and feel joy of have read those many books.
                I prefer the regular printed books. When I read I like to feel the smell of an old book. I love feeling the pages as I read. I like to admire my entire collection of books and to be proud and show it when I have guest at my home and to be able to just read it as many times I want to and to share it with my friends.

             Even though people who use eBooks said that they can get them as soon as they come out and not having to wait until arrive to the bookstore. They get them with a price cheaply than a regular book. However eBooks are not too convenient to use. The screen can hurt the eyes, it needs to have internet and give headache and if I want to share my eBooks, I would have to give my e-reader.

                In other words I would never change my books. I like to feel the satisfaction to see all my books I had read to be able to share with my family and friends.  I believe books are history no matter what type of books they all are books and no matter how many eBooks exist I would never change from reading printed books.

Effects of Reading


Have you ask yourselves, what reading does to your mind? Many people are not conscious that reading is a big help for the developing of the brain. Reading helps you to develop your knowledge and make you learn and understand certain information.
Reading does a lot for your brain. It calls into play several different areas of the brain, reading is more demanding on processing images or speech than just watching a movie or listening to books on tape will work out and expand your brain but not at the same level that reading can. 
            Also, reading helps increase your concentration, for example, at school if you are not so good on using new words or pronunciation, by practicing everyday it helps you to increase your knowledge and your grades. Reading is a big help for you. Many people do not like to read because when they read people do not remember first part of the story and give up, but that true is that people should start practicing more and get used to it.
To conclude I believe reading is important for people. Reading is an exercise for your brain. People should start reading more often so they can see they improvement on not only vocabulary, but in knowledge and an increase of concentration.
