Content is always key, and I understand where you are coming from in that.

I was curious if that physical relationship (not content relationship) with physical books has stopped others from reading as much as they feel they want / could, and if an ereader has altered that interaction so much that they are now happier with books than they were previously.
I'm glad you found a way to enjoy books! I think your experience is perfectly valid and is part of the reason why I decided to get an e-Reader device (not ereader). The other issues were storage of books... my book shelves are overflowing and just take up space for no good reason, but I do like to maintain a nice library. My library is no maintained on Amazons servers for me and I have pretty quick access to them all.
