Do you buy rent or borrow? Or do you have a subscription of some kind? Do you read physical books or do you read ebooks?

Ebooks on moaan inkpalm, which is a small cellphone sized e reader. I've used kindles and nooks, and I prefer the smaller form factor, because it's easier to always have with me. I don't have as much free time as I used to, and being able to read when the opportunity arises really helps me read more. I also listen to audiobooks. I have a problem with keeping books, and eventually it's just too much, so as much as I like physical books I don't buy many anymore.
