Do people suddenly have more free time?

Are there people sitting home alone in their overstuffed recliners sad that they can not afford a book to read?

Have you heard of anyone unable to read books because of the cost?

Frankly, there is no evidence that people will read more if books are cheaper. I suspect its a story people who argue for cheaper ebooks tell themselves.
When people cite studies that show this, then I'll believe it.
