Yes, I think readers are in the minority. It's not interactive, it requires a long attention span, and good imagination. Many people I know are hyper-interactive, have an attention span that can just take in one Twitter message, and can't imagine how a scene will look if they don't have pictures or a movie to show them.
Those people are not readers.
My sister's boyfriend is a great LotR and Harry Potter fan... He didn't even know these movies are based on books...
