I hadn't even thought of nonfiction....shows how much I read for entertainment.
A lot of nonfiction has the added complexity of diagrams scattered throughout the text or sections of photographs, if you were to include those in the digital copies. I can see your point - I doubt anyone is jumping to convert those before the mass market fiction.
