I read the physical newspaper on Sundays and whenever I see one when I'm out and about. I'm a voracious reader, and newspapers keep the fires fed.
One thing I like about getting my news online is that I can read three newspapers easily--the local newspaper, the Oregonian, and the New York Times--without subscribing to all three and spending $. I don't mind reading text online.
For me, reading the newspaper is an important part of my day, even if it is online. My dad read the paper every day when I was growing up. I would feel weird if I didn't read the newspaper.
So I guess my answer to the question of "Erudite or Luddite" would be: both!
