[Edited to Add] I would go so far as to say, that if we choose to go paperless in other areas (bills, pamphlets, etc), we can pretty much assure that we will always be able produce books.

I agree. There will always be the older format. That is why I point to some of the virtues of them. It isn't necessarily a bad thing to have accessibility to older formats, just as change isn't necessarily bad.

The post above this one said it best it isn't as much of an attack on the new format as a lamentation to change. Some just want the older format.
