This is not quite true. People with print disabilities have a well tested and proven right (in at least several countries, possibly more) to have print material they need for study or work provided in an accessible format, which is typically electronic.
Deliberately staggered release of print and electronic formats in mainstream novels has not yet been tested in court that I'm aware of, but I'm guessing it will be at some point - deliberately denying people with print disabilities access to your product when you have the resources to provide it is a very questionable practice. And yes 'entertainment' is included as a realm that should be made accessible in the human rights legislation I'm familiar with in my country and again in at least some others.
