eBooks

Will new technologies like eBooks replace print books? Why or why not? 

Technology has continued to change in recent years, but all the changes are not necessarily better. I believe that eBooks are better in certain instances, but they should not entirely replace print books. Since the younger generation is into new technology, they will probably buy more eBooks than older adults. In the upcoming years, college students will also buy more e-textbooks since they are cheaper than traditional textbooks, especially with the rising costs of tuition. I think the publication of paper books will decrease in the next few years especially if it becomes easier to freely download books like it is with new movies. I personally prefer print books even though they take up more space.
