Maybe it's a generational thing, but I have no problem reading from a screen. I've read PDFs of all sorts, comic books, and even novels. There's still room for improvement in display technology and form factor, but it's not bad right now.

You don't have to print the whole thing, just the parts you might want to use. And only then if you can't stand to run things off screen. Back up your data and it's just as durable as paper. You can also search the text of a PDF for that one article you read a few years ago but can't remember the issue number of.
Must be gerneational. Because while I enjoy message boards reading and debating, I DONT like reading magazines online. Kolbold quarterly is nice, but I stopped because I dont want to read mazgaines that way. Its annoying. Same with FIREBASE magzine for warhammer 40k.

Online books/magazines are not the same thing as curling up with a good book or magazine, and taking it everywhere, including the bathroom.
