41% (less than half) of all iPad users prefer eBooks to printed books and PCWorld's conclusion is that ... "iPad owners prefer eBooks to print"?

The opinion of these 23% may be unknown, but there is one thing about them that we do know: they don't prefer eBooks to print, because if they did they would have voted so. So that leaves 41% who do prefer eBooks to print against 59% who do not prefer eBooks to print (for whatever reason). Oh PCWorld, what a quality journalism! Just for the record: I am part of the 41% who do prefer eBooks to print. Oh, and I guess I should take a look at Angry birds? Haven't played it yet. |

I'd point out that the article doesn't make the claim that iPad owners prefer eBooks to printed books. It simply states the percentages everyone has mentioned. The headline of the article makes that claim. Often headlines are written by someone other than the author and are meant to grab attention. I guess they succeeded.
