Oxford English Dictionary No More

The Oxford English Dictionary has announced this week that they will no longer release print editions. They will only be available online like most dictionaries are these days. It’s a little sad isn’t it? Before there was dictionary.com I always used a dictionary to look up definitions as a kid. Could this be the beginning of the end? Will all books cease to exist as the internet continues to take over? Even though I don’t have much time to read books these days, there is something that I love about physically holding a book to read it. I’ll never resort to reading a book online because I think it puts too much strain on my eyes and I certainly do not want to have a book read to me using a tape either. What do you guys think?
