Yeah. But then even when print books were the only option, people would say "I like REAL books" to imply classics or general fiction books. Not science fiction, westerns, Stephen King or whatever the commenter wanted to look down on.

People always like to see themselves as superior and whatever they don't like is instantly inferior.

Ebooks just give them one more chance.
