Time to get a tablet which will serve me well for music (reading, charts, triggering and / or playing samples) and aviation. Problem is I dislike Apple with a passion but can't see anything other than an iPad Mini in my future.

That said, I can't remember the last time I actually went into a shop and bought some. Periodic attempts at learning new songs on piano involve downloading sheet music from e.g. Musicnotes. Probably loads of other sites available, if you've got a printer you can have hard copy that way. Appreciate not everyone has a printer these days though.
It’s much easier to read.

I appreciate most sheet music is for home playing but I can see why they'd go online/digital only to be honest as they can't be selling many books if the stuff the shops usually have in stock is anything to go by. With digital stuff they've no material costs, just the hosting of them via servers which I guess is often paid by the individual shops anyway.
I use an ipad pro, the big screen one which is more or less a4 sized, and use forscore. I bought a screen protector that illustrators use so it's more like a matte paper effect, and turn the brightness right down and it works for ages. I've done full day wedding gigs and only used about 30% battery! And whilst I like to setup setlists/playlists for each wedding, i also have access to every sheet music I've ever had at a few taps of the screen so when you get that clown who comes over and tries to through you with an obscure request (there's always one) then you're often good to go. I also use Musescore so even if I don't have it, a quick search on there can sometimes do enough.
It's a shame as I do like books (and have an absolute tonne of them in a box in the garage). Moreso the classical books though, they were much more nicely bound and able to turn pages without too much hassle I find most modern style books and guitar books etc are really impractical and you end up wrecking the books trying to flatten out the binding to turn pages smoothly

As for drawing on the sheet music, certainly OnSong and forScore can, whether with a finger or with a stylus. I expect many others will but it is worth checking which features your chosen app has.
