We are meeting very different fast/hardcore/prolific readers. I tend to move in genre circles mostly, F/SF, mystery, romance, YA etc - and ebooks are embraced by many. I've mostly encountered paper prejudice amongst exclusive capital-L Literature circles, and they're snobbish and insular about everything.

The hardest of all hardcore readers are romance readers, and they've embraced digital with an absolute vengeance.
