Not true. I haven't bought a single paperback since switching to ereaders. I have about 20+ books downloaded that I haven't read yet. I will have to finish all of those before I even consider buying a paperback. (or perhaps if my ereader breaks!)
Um, what the original quote means is that people who buy the ebook don't buy the paperback so by your own admission it is true.
