I always prefer printed books, manuals, magazines, etc., over digital alternatives, though I know that digital is easier to store, move with me from place to place and can be edited, modified, or combined with other digital texts in ways that printed documents cannot. I guess I am just too "Old School" when it comes to written information, and I will eventually get more used to flipping screens, or scrolling through text in a small side window on a computer screen, while working on something, instead of having a printed manual or book next to my keyboard or monitor on the desk, while working on the computer.
I respect the copyrights of those who originally created, or published informational texts, and I really dislike the attitudes that some Amiga users display regarding old software, or information, which they think should be free, just because it is not currently relevant, or actively being updated. This "Entitlement" attitude is something I will never understand.
One of the manuals (actually a book) I would really like to see reprinted, or updated and then published for sale, is Ralph Babel's Amiga Guru book. It is almost impossible to find an English printed copy of this book anymore, and although the information it contains is outdated in many areas, it is still one of the best sources of information about AmigaDOS, and many other Amiga topics, for people who want to learn about the Amiga from beginning to end.
