Are you ready for the paperless era?
A. No, I prefer paper reading.
B. I am in transition.
C. I rely heavily on the Internet and habitually read e-books.
Before you told me your answer, I want to share with you a report. Since Amazon sold more e-books than paper books in 2011, its e-book revenue has been increasing steadily. In terms of purchase quantity and readership, e-books undoubtedly defeated paper books. According to the survey, 46% of readers chose to read both paper books and e-books in the past year, while 29% of readers chose e-books as their main reading form, which was an increase of 6% over the previous year.
E-reading seems to be the popular trend. Why would this phenomenon happen?

Easily search for comprehensive information
At present, major websites have a powerful search engine. They provide resource sharing and remote services. Compared with going to the library to search for information by yourself, it is more convenient to search online and the information is more comprehensive.

Beneficial to the fragmentation of reading
Today, a large amount of information is rushing toward us, and reading seems to be more time-consuming. Lack of time has become the main reason why people don’t read anymore. However, paperless reading brings people a new visual experience. For many people, paperless reading is more convenient, saving both time and effort.

Low price, saving resources and reducing pollution
The e-books publish quickly by editing technology, which greatly reduces the production cost. The raw materials of paper books are trees, and cutting down a great number of trees will damage the environment. Moreover, the process of producing paper will also pollute the river. These problems can be solved if producing e-books.
It can be seen that paperless reading will still be the mainstream in the future.
