Like everything else, Technology has also not left this hallowed bastion alone. Trends are changing as more and more E- books are now available for the readers.

Well, Paper books versus E- Books is currently the favorite topic of debate for the writers as well as for the readers. But when OneWorldNews.com conducted a survey among the readers we got some mixed response.

“E- Books can never give pleasure like traditional books because a regular reader can only tell that how it feels when you turn around the pages with cup of coffee”, says Madhuri a Mass communication student

Traditional books can be easily borrowed that you can’t do in E- books. Apart from this most of like to have book shelve that is also used for home decoration. That you can’t do with E-books.

On the other some people strongly feel that E- Books are not only a trend among youngsters but it also have wonderful benefits for environment too.

Such as:
By reading E- Books we can save paper, thereby contributing towards preventing deforestation, thereby reducing the carbon footprint.
More convenient to carry as they can remain in your phone or laptops.
Many E-books can be stored in only one device and you can read them anytime you want.

Well, both of them have their own pros and cons, and the sole motive is to read and if content is good, then the medium really does not matter.

To paraphrase Shakespeare – ‘A good book in any medium would still be a good read.’
