In\nthe last few weeks, the book industry has released some extraordinary figures\nshowing that this sale of eBooks online were quite down this year as compared\nto the sale of printed books. This has happened for the very first time in\nabout two years. So in this article, we have published some of the reasons why\nprinted books are much preferred than regular eBooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. All the printed books have\npages that are quite nice and are tender to the touch. The papers on which the\nbooks are printed makes reading physically pleasurable. However, reading an eBook\non the other hand usually feels like using an ATM. So after staring at the\ncomputer screen for more than 9 to 10 hours at work every day, how relaxing is\nit to curl up in your bed and stare at another screen?<\/li>
  2. The printed books are way\nbetter at conveying different types of information. A study in a recent journal\nreported that the readers who read stories or other blogs using a kindle were\nless likely to remember and recall all the events in a mystery novel or a blog\nthan the people who were reading it from the same novel in print. So if you\nwant to follow up or remember the things and acquire other information, print\nis the best way to do it.<\/li>
  3. The printed books are yours\nfor your entire life. The books which you bought while you were in college or\nyou were in school will still be readable even after 50 years. However on the\nother hand after 10 years do you really think your eBook reader or your kindle\nmight work well with the modern eBooks of the time?<\/li>
  4. The printed books carry and\nkeep a lot of physical reminders and memories of your intellectual journeys.\nThe Enid Blyton storybooks or our Chacha Chaudhary storybooks take you back to\nthe early years of your childhood. However, a Kindle is incapable of sharing\nsuch emotions and other memories.<\/li>
  5. The printed books are great\nto share. You would love to hand over a book to a close friend and say you that\n\u2018You\u2019ve got to read this’.  Definitely,\nthere are ways of sharing an eBook if both your friend and you can navigate\nthrough the digital rights management system efficiently. But sharing an ebook\nis just similar to sharing an email or paying someone through PayPal or\nsomething else.<\/li>
  6. One can write different\nthings in the margins of a printed book, dog-ear or bookmark all the important\npages and also underline the important sentences with the pencil. The eBooks\noften allow the user to do the same in the form of digital acts, but there is a\nhuge difference between physical gestures and digital release.<\/li>
  7. The printed books have\njackets so that the people nearby know what exactly you are reading thus making\nreading a community-building activity.<\/li>
  8. The printed books are much\nfairer to the writers and are also better for your health. These books are also\ntheft-resistant as if you leave the book in the car or on the library table,\nyou can be sure to find it there when you return back.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
