As a bit of anecdata, my kids show a slight preference for physical books over ebooks, although they’re happy enough to listen to digital audio books. They have literally no experience with physical media for music but have at least encountered DVDs and Blu-Rays (although when I talk about watching something on disc they actively resist it—the convenience of pulling up something on streaming outweighs the limited selection available).

A true story: literally hours after posting this, I was with my kids at Barnes and Noble and they had records and CDs for sale by the cash register and my daughter asked what they were and when I explained it to my kids, they were skeptical and asked why someone would want such things.

I saw a Discman in a museum a few years ago.

A Discman. They couldn't even use a Walkman.

I raised my kids with physical books. But when I was growing up we had a record turntable, and then a tape player, and I do remember having some kind of physical connection with my favorite music because of that.

It IS more inconvenient to have them pull them out. No question about that.
