Physical. I only read digital if it's professional literature.

For all the logical reasons - space, portability, seachability yada yada - ebooks win all the time.

However, if I am reading in comfort at home and have the option I will still go for a paperback every time. Paperback, mind. Not a hardback, which have never appealed to me.

Absolutely digital.

Physical except when I need to quickly search for something, in that case digital.

If it's fanfiction/non-comics, then digital all the way. But if it's comics or manga, then having a physical copy is always super nice.

ebooks. I read better with a back light, I have found, and generally read with light text on a dark background, both of which my tablet makes really easy

Reading Ebooks is like watching a movie on a (crappy) smartphone. It’s just not as enjoyable for me.
