Konstantin,
I have a paper 3-volume set for my S6 and I love it for the easiness of
finding the necessary stuff. Con: being a neatnik and a perfectionist I
am I have to go to the bathroom every 10 minutes to wash my hands.

I also have a CD for my wife's A4 and I love the ability to print out
only the needed chapters for the particular repair that I am performing,
handle it with greasy hands, chikenscratch my notes on them for the
later BTDT write-ups to the quattro list and throw them away afterwards.
Con: the CD is a real b!tch to navigate, very user-unfriendly. Suffice
to say that you can't mouseover the track numbers in the electrical
schematics and click your way from circuit to circuit.
