I voted no for a few specific reasons.
I enjoy online access and PDFs because they can make searches easier, but they also can bog down a game if there's slow wifi/internet or the site is experiencing issues. Paper books don't have that issue.
Also one of my players is mostly blind and has issues seeing electronic screens. If I went to purely digital I would alienate a friend and player that I enjoy gaming around.
Some of my players are technology adjacent. They know just enough about tech to get by with their daily lives, but can get frustrated with new tech. Not saying they couldn't adapt, but it presents an additional hurdle to them enjoying the game.
So while I do like and enjoy online access as an additional tool, I don't think the benefits outweigh the drawbacks of having it as the de facto rules source.
