I have long held that I can study and investigate things more effectively with real books and sources than I can digitally, despite the unmeasurably huge advantages digital data has when it comes to searching and sorting.

Ha, one kid and the paper medium is worthless?
One heck of a leap. Could it be that the paper medium is trying to keep up with what it is not?

But yeah, maybe future generations will be more inclined to get maximum benefit from digital media than as old folk...I prefer reading a paper edition of anything over digital. I hate reading a wall of text on the monitor. I will skim.
I have not tried e-readers. Husband and kid have tablets. I have no use for these toys (and all they do is watch movies, both have real TVs...somebody explain that to me!)

Magazines are not as good as they used to be anymore, and there is no Ad-Block to take care of the advertisement that takes up 50% of the paper space.
