Certainly not. Putting aside the fact that I believe the Qur'an is a great work of poetry on its own and that I have spent the majority of my academic career studying it, deleting a copy simply wouldn't have the same resonance as burning a paper book. For starters, who would even know that I had done it? Without creating a public display of Qur'an deleting (and imagine how boring that would be), what would be the point?
Plus, it's just not a nice thing to do. I suppose if I read it for the first time and simply decided that it was uninteresting, I might delete it to free up some space. Realistically though, given that an ereader gives the average user an essentially unlimited amount of space, even that sort of deletion doesn't really hold water. But to delete a copy of the Qur'an out of spite? There's just no valid cause for that.
