I prefer real paper books. Unfortunately, they can't be pirated, they cost hundreds of dollars per book, my desk cannot accommodate by binder, computer, and also a textbook. If a textbook is under $60 I'll get it regardless if I can/have the e book, but that's because it's not from a big company and I'm not paying for some CEOs seventh yacht, instead it's supporting the person/people who wrote it.
