No, and no to both questions.

I still read and buy plenty of paper books. Many things are not available in e-editions (foreign-language works, academic stuff) and some things simply don't translate well to portable e-readers (artbooks, some types of reference). Also, "free at the library" beats "$12.99 with DRM" any day for stuff I'm likely to only read once.

As for non-book stuff I put on my Kindle, I keep class lecture notes and public transit schedules/maps in PDF for easy accessibility. I also sometimes keep a list of the paper/comic books I've bought so that I don't keep re-buying stuff I already own when I'm at the used bookstore/comic shop seasonal sales.
