No it wouldn't. Except at the margins, the medium doesn't determine the market. People aren't going to buy crappy books just because they have an e-reader. People aren't going to waste their time digging through a slush pile for gems just because they have an e-reader.

The e-reader exists so that people can read the books they want to read on an e-reader. If these books aren't available, they will return to paper in vast numbers.
