In the future, nobody will buy printed newspapers or books because they will be able to read everything they want online without paying. To what extent do you agree or diagree with this statement? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience. Write at least 250 words.

It is often argued that printed
newspapers
and
books
are not necessary to pay for because
people
can find everything online that they want. In my case, I partly agree with
this
issue because both advantages and disadvantages exist. First of all, by developing online communities, we can search easily with our smartphones or some electronic gadgets. So we do not need to pay for printed
newspapers
to get news every day.
For example
, I usually check daily weather by my applications which are installed on my phone.
In addition
, my family stopped paying for printed
newspapers
delivered every morning because just by several clicks, we can check the huge amount of social news.
Thus
, the rate of
people
who pay for printed
newspapers
will decrease from now on because of the development of electronic gadgets and the internet environment.
However
, not as same as
newspapers
, In the case of printed
books
, we do not have to read them without paying. Even though e-
books
are developed, every person has to pay for reading,
such
as paying every month or year to start reading
books
by applications, not just for free.
Moreover
, reading
books
without paying can be considered as not protecting writers’ and publishers’ copyrights.
For instance
, if we searched and read
books
in illegal ways online, it would be equal to stealing
books
in bookstores without paying the right amount of money. In conclusion, we can find everything online and the number of
people
who pay for printed
newspapers
and
books
will be decreased. But, it depends on the type of content. Because of the possibility that
people
can behave illegally, like not paying enough money, I partially agree with the given statement.
