In the future, nobody will buy printed newspapers or books because they will be able to read everything online without paying. To what extent do you agree?

It is argued that, in the world in which everything going to be digitalized, electronic
versions
of
newspapers
and
books
are successors of printed
versions
.
Although
it may convince some
people
that due to some benefits which digital
books
and
newspapers
have nobody will buy printed
versions
of them in the future, I think that printed
versions
do not fade away completely. Digital
books
and
newspapers
have many advantages.
Firstly
, they are accessible easily. Individuals can read them on their electronic devices everywhere, whereas, carrying printed
books
and
newspapers
everywhere is not easy.
Secondly
, digital
versions
of them cut off the costs of printing and publishing,
hence
, their lower prices.
Thirdly
, every year millions of trees are being cut for making paper. If digital
books
and
newspapers
take printed
versions
' place, the fewer trees and forests will be destroyed, so the Earth planet will be less damaged.
On the other hand
, printed
versions
have some benefits which digital
versions
do not have. It seems that printed
versions
are better at conveying information, specially printed
books
. Studies suggest that if individuals would like to remember what they read in the long term, it is better to use physical
books
. According to researchers , the group of
people
who had used a Kindle -The Amazon company's electronic device for reading digital
books
and materials- could less remember events in a novel than another group who had read the same novel in print.
Therefore
, it seems that printed
books
still will be demanded by
people
in the future. In conclusion, as far as can be seen, in the future, the number of publishing the printed
books
and
newspapers
will be decreased dramatically.
Also
, most
of

the people

will use digital
versions
instead
, because of the benefits which they have.
However
, there will be a number of
people
who use printed
versions
.
