I was a huge reader as a kid and through middle school, I was constantly reading. Around 14 this stopped and I didn't read anything that wasn't required for school for about 8 years. At that point I bought a Kindle and started reading again. 3 years later, I haven't used my Kindle in months and I buy books (paper) on a regular basis. It was great at first, and it definitely got me back into reading but there's something about having that physical book that can't be beat. I also have a large music collection on CD though, maybe I'm just old fashioned (ish since it's not vinyl).
