My opinion: yes they will survive the digital revolution. Why ? Because paper books have been around for centuries, they are something of a classic. Any book loving person has some kind of library of print books at home, it looks nice in the shelves and it's a timeless classic thing to have it.
Personally I admit that I'm not too much into purchasing print books anymore but even with everything one day being available the digital way, I still would like to have at least the bigger works in nice printed versions on my shelves. e.g. The Lord of the Rings, War and Peace, Les Misérables and so on.
