Now here is a question which, unlike the one raised by the thread title, can actually be answered without waiting until 2018.
Re the OP, I have another unanswerable question -- when will you be able to buy a decent ePub knockoff of the basic Kindle at Poundland (where everything is £1), or, at least, fiveBelow (maximum price US$5)? If someone can answer that, I'm thinking we'll then know when eBooks will not just outsell print, but do so by such a decisive margin as to put immersive reading p-books on a steep and permanent downward spiral.
