For the first few years of the modern (long after Harry started) era of ebooks, I found that most of my reading time had switched from print to ebooks. But within the past 18 months or so, I found that I have returned to print books for about 75% of my reading. What I find off-putting about ebooks is the price combined with the limitations.
However, ebooks have changed one significant aspect of my reading: I am now interested in finding good indie authors in the genres I like to read for pleasure. (I rarely read nonfiction ebooks; probably 98% of all my ebook reading is fiction.) I don't mind spending a few dollars on an ebook and I like that I can often preview an ebook.
But the love of ebooks that readers like Harry have and profess eludes me. Perhaps it is because most of my reading is nonfiction or perhaps it is my age, but I find I am less interested in ebooks than I was previously.
