When you add another 18% who read 20 or less books in one year, suddenly we're nearly 50% of those who read little or nothing. I'm not surprised that those that read only a couple books a year have no interest in ebooks. That *could* mean that those who read more than 20 books/year do prefer ebooks and the Pew Research results I pointed to upstream seem agree with that.
