Regarding the photography books, how does a complete digital archive of a photographer's works compare to a physical book of the same content? Would you still prefer the physical book in that scenario?

Many people think that you really need to see a photo printed to get the whole experience. Seeing it in a screen isn’t the same. I suspect resolution is part of the problem.
Unless the digital archive is well captioned, I’d say a book is much better learning the context of a photo and the photographer.
