Not at all pointless. For heavy readers. The ones who need these things because they carry a book with them everywhere. For those who read maybe 5 book a year, I think that's the national average, and likely only read for a few minutes a few times a week most likely at home, the expense of an ereader seems unnecessary. For those people reading is simply not a high priority. It's appalling but a large number of people in the US don't read ANY books.
