Ebooks are changing the publishing industry. They're also changing the way in which people access books. For the first time, ebooks are apparently outselling paperbacks; and as the price of ereaders continues to drop, it seems likely that this trend will continue.Will trade paperbacks...

Which do you prefer digital books or the good old fashioned paperback and hard bounds?I have lots of ebooks on my computer but I still prefer flipping pages and the smell of old books. Which do you prefer digital books or the old fashion books?
Do people still buy books any more?With many bookstores going out of business, do you still buy books anymore? If so, do you buy the traditional books, audio-books, or eBooks?
I prefer hardbacks. They are more durable compared to trades. As someone who has collected books for decades, I’ve seen books fall apart as the glue on the spine dries out and then pages begin to fall out. Hardbacks with sewn in pages do not fall apart due to age.
And now, here is an additional topic on the design of hardcovers vs. trade paperbacks. Hardbacks with good trade dress display beautifully. Here is my personal library. Notice the bottom shelf with all my Marvel Omnibuses with their distinctive red stripes along the top of the volumes.

Now notice the middle and top shelves. I’ve highlighted the volumes with a red outline to discuss specific collections.
The middle shelf has examples of good and bad trade dress. The Wonder Woman and New Teen Titans have a consistent look even though the DC logos have changed as do the Jack Kirby volumes. The Green Arrow trades start with a blue stripe along the bottom which is not present for the final four volumes. Also, both the blue stripes and the illustrations along the top of the books do not line up like the other DC and Marvel volumes.
The top shelf has sets of trades from the different animated series comic series. Spine colors and striping differs throughout so there is very little to convey they all are from the same “family or universe” of series. The three books of Legends of the Dark Knight by Jim Aparo have three different logos and spine designs. Finally, the New 52 Batman is a nice group that includes a single white spine among the black spines. Just why?
Here’s a photo of the Legends and Tales of the Dark Knight series from the internet.Do they look like a unified collection of Batman books with all the different colors and styles of typefaces and different spines? Again, just why? Now compare them to the Marvel Omnibuses which, even with different spine colors and typefaces, provide a uniform look across the entire shelf.
