There are a couple of problems I can see in the US, though things might differ elsewhere. One is that an awful lot of folks never learned to view reading as pleasure. It's a chore, done because you have to, and not something you do for fun.

I disagree--The Harry Potter series showed that if you can put out a product that ingnites young people they will read. Kindle is cool at the moment--as wii was and PS2--My niece is getting one and all her friends (they are 10), why because her friends are--there's a real opportunity to get young people back into reading here.
