Nothing beats having the book in your hands.

Conner Nielsen

I find changing the screen to view panels/pages a continually frustrating experience. With a physical book, it’s so easy to simply pick up, hold to your desire, and read.

Since I collect Omnibus, I'm obligated to say physical. Definitely much more of a process though.

Digital is cheaper, and I don't really reread most of my comics. One and dones are the norm.

Justin Hayes

It’s just what I’m used to. I buy almost everything digitally because it is so, so much cheaper, and thus I’ve always been accustomed to digital on my tablet. Plus it’s nice to be able to read it with one hand on occasion on a phone with guided view on to zoom with.

Way more time on new media.

Switched to YouTube from Cable like it so much better because of what we normally watch is programmed for us.

Adam Nixon

I'd say it's like 60/40 in favor of things like user generated content, but it has more to do with time than anything else. Due to things like work and chores, I just don't have time during the day for movies/TV. But for a few hours in the evening, I tend to watch more movies/TV, which I prefer.

Andrew Cozzini

This is one of those where I'm voting the honest truth, even though I'd prefer it be the other (while still making time for Geekvolution, of course). I think it's because of how casually I can spend hours on YouTube, as opposed to being intentional about catching up on content I intend to consume.
