Digital on the Kindle Paperwhite, but only because it's easier and I don't accumulate a physical book if I buy it (if the library doesn't have it). I like book books but don't like owning many books.
Comics/graphic novels I like on paper. No other format compares.
Can't do audiobooks, I read faster than I talk or listen so the pace bothers me.
I relate to all of this!
I do however mostly read digital books in bed, so it has huge sleep cues for me. Holding the pages open on some thick space opera sci-fi is too tiresome
Convenience is a hell of a drug
