Not only that, but it, the media, smells better, 'touches' better -- you
can sleep on a couch with its openbook on your face very nicely.

You can get angry and throw it across the room more easily, dogear the
pages with more satisfaction and direct access, and chew on the cover,
if you are feeling especially backward.

You can stuff it into your waistband/britches more easily, and use it to
start a fire in the woods with it after you are thru', or maybe if you
aren't.
