Sentences with phrase «portable than a print version»

The usual factors to explain why books remain print - bound include the preference of many for the «feel» of a book (and the ease of flipping through pages); the fact that e-books are usually only best read on a large monitor (on a desktop), making them less portable than a print version; the lack of content in e-books; and the lack of a market and established distribution methods, a point made earlier on SLAW through a posting by John Davis.
