I was just wondering, since I only read books that I physically possess.

eBooks aren’t my thing.

Do you read rips or buy the ebook/book officially?

    I used to have a gigantic collection of books. Several walls’ worth of shelves. Then I moved to another country. Then another. Then another continent.

    With each move my collection shrunk until I decided to give up on physical copies. I still have some art books and albums, but for text I stick to DRM-free digital files, for comics - all digital (with a few graphic novel exceptions). Same for music and video - ripped it all into my own server.

    Transition took forever and I do miss the smell of paper sometimes, but I no longer have to give away media or look for places based on ability to accommodate my collections.

      That’s true.

      My main reason for only buying and reading physical books, is that it’s the only medium that I still use in it’s physical, analogue form.

      Everything else I have is digital, except my books. I like that I can lend them out
