in the future, nobody will buy printed newspapers or books because they will be able to read everything that they want online without paying. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

It has been argued that in the future, with the invention of the
Internet
,
people
will never spend their money on providing
newspapers
and
books
, since they can get any piece of information virtually without any payment. Personally, I opine with
this
idea strongly, and I will support my opinion with some underlying reasons towards
this
essay.
First
of all, I believe that in the not-distant future, printed and paper-based
newspapers
are going to be obsolete.
This
is mainly because it is not cost-efficient as well as is severely time-consuming. To be more precise, to provide a book,
people
used to go to the libraries in their town and spend time to reach the place and
then
purchase the book, while the invention of the
Internet
has facilitated
this
situation recently by which
people
can swiftly download numerous
books
and
newspapers
' content free. So, since
people
, these days, value their wealth and are seeking ways to reduce their costs, obviously they will find buying
books
via the
Internet
more beneficial rather than printed ones from libraries and other shops . 
Secondly
, it has been suggested by some technophobe readers that they prefer to rely on the old method of reading, mainly because they argue that paper-based materials are more trustworthy and they would like to smell the odour of the papers while reading. It is not,
however
, an acceptable reason to reject the usage of the technology. Why is
this
case? It is largely due to the fact that it is the nature of human beings to follow the easiest types of ways to own anything. What I mean by
this
is that the majority of individuals prefer to stay at their own homes and only by using their phones or computers connected to the
Internet
are able to have various
books
and
newspapers
. In a nutshell, despite many critics, I am strongly in favour of
this
phenomenon and believe that we should appreciate all changes that are coming after technological developments.
