The Benefits of a Digital Library

Gone are the days where we kept our entertainment entirely physically. Shelves with DVDs, CDs, books and games have been replaced with streaming services, a digital collection of movies and eReaders – and believe it or not, many of us are better off for it! Many people are moving towards trying to own less stuff and owning a digital library goes a long way to assisting with that.

Today, we’re going to be talking about the benefits of having a digital library and why you should at least consider making the switch if you haven’t already done so!

The Benefits of a Digital Library

It’ll save you space
One of the main space users in homes are our entertainment libraries – they fill shelves and shelves, often migrating onto available surfaces and taking up any spare space we’ve got. A digital library literally cannot do this. Being stored in the cloud, on the internal memory of your devices, hard drives and memory cards, you’ll have infinitely more space available to you, and not have to worry about your entertainment taking over your home.

It’s portable and easy to move
How many boxes did you have full of your films, books and music during your last move? A lot, we’d guess! This isn’t the case with a digital library; everything is stored in a few, easy and light portable pieces of technology that are easy to put in a bag and take with you when travelling, or put in a small box when you’re moving – you could easily save yourself 5-10 boxes of space.

You never need to worry about the number of anything you own
Especially in the case of readers, you’ll never need to worry about the amount of an object that you own. You can carry literally thousands of books, or songs, or even movies with you wherever you go, meaning you’ll never run out of entertainment on long commutes, while you’re waiting for meetings or on quiet afternoons when you want to go and sit in the park. While we don’t condone unnecessarily purchasing things you don’t need, buying a couple of extra eBooks, for example, never hurt anyone and you’ll never be short of reading material!
