I like to have it both ways. I like to have all my music in digital format, but I also like the tangible appearance of CDs on a shelf. I imagine I'll be the same way with books, when I get the iPad. Digital to read, but still own the books on my shelf.
Mind you, having just typed that out, I see the flaw in my thinking. While it's easy for me to buy my CDs and rip them into digital format (thus, only buying the CD once), I won't be able to do that with books. I would have to actually buy the books twice to satisfy the same wants. Probably not something I am going to do...
So. Which will win out? Will I switch to buying digital books, or continue to buy the physical ones? Dun dun dunnnn...
