Actually, not just paperbacks, but only the smaller / standard-sized ones (mass-market?) AIUI.
One of my favourite authors books no longer appear in that size, which really annoys me, since I started w/ his books in that size when they first appeared in 1982 or so, and the non-strippability was apparently one factor in that, instead I have my choice of hardcover or the larger trade paperbacks (which won't fit on the shelf where his books are stored).
