Do you find that you retain less and/or read at a slower pace with ebooks(ereader, phone, tablet, desktop) than with physical books? If so, do you think that this is compensated for by how convenient ebooks are otherwise as they are free and instantly obtainable, or that it is unacceptable and a waste of time due to the reduced retention and/or slower pace?
I find that it is easier to read a physical book, but I am unsure whether or not I'm retaining more. Waiting 1-2 weeks for a book to arrive is annoying compared to downloading an ebook. Has anyone here read a textbook from a computer monitor? I cannot imagine that it is pleasant.
