Hmmm I would like to be able to buy manga, but there are not many translated and published in my country, not to mention the english versions.
T_T if only I would be able to get them easily...

Yep, I buy manga...well, bought anyway. I'm giving up buying anything anime/manga related for Lent, which is funny because I'm not even Christian (I thought it would be a good test of discipline and a great way to stockpile money for other expenses).
I just prefer holding a book than reading it on a screen. Call me old-fashioned or whatever.
There's also a bunch of other little reasons, too, but none important enough to list here.

i agree with you, gothung.
i've started reading Manga like 7 years ago, it really got me addicted, it's what brought me to watching Anime afterwards. I watch a lot of Anime. But still today i buy Manga, about every second Month. And it just doesn't feel the same to read a Manga online, by staring at your screen, compared to holding it in your hands, owning it, and be able to read it where you want, when you want.

I'm not sure precisely how many I have now - last count was around sixty, I think.

Cuz having the manga in your hands while you read it is way better than reading from a digital screen.
Anywho, if I see it at a local bookstore and I can spare the cash for it, I try to buy it. Usually have to walk over the people sitting on the floor reading manga to get to it though.
