Tried Marvel Unlimited vs. single issues for a month and the digital won by a mile

I’ve been collecting single issues for like 10 years, but last month I got the $10 Marvel Unlimited trial to catch up on stuff I missed. Reading through Hickman’s whole X-Men run without digging through longboxes was just so much easier. The downside is I miss the cover art and that new book smell, but I saved around $60 just on that one arc. Has anyone else switched to digital for the back issues and found it worth it?

Wait, isn't Marvel Unlimited like $10 a month though? You said you saved $60 just on that one arc, but you still paid the sub fee.

I mean, I get the convenience angle with that "new book smell" comment, but for me having the physical copies is half the fun. Flipping through a longbox is part of the experience, not a chore, ya know? Idk, saving $60 is nice but I'd rather have the books on my shelf than a subscription I might forget to cancel.
