I've seen polls on ereaders vs pbooks on many different kinds of sites: history, gaming, news, etc. The 3 to 1 ratio is consistent with my experience. On many of those polls it was more 4 to 1. I don't think this is gonna change. From estimates i've seen the growth of ereader sales have slown significantly, and most people don't prefer to read on their tablets or phones. I don't think ereading will be the revolution many aficionados are hoping for. Instead, more people will continue to favor paper, but the heavy readers will skew towards digital. This will make paper sales and digital sales roughly equivalent even though there will be more pback readers.
