Yes, but those people also aren't likely expecting their e-books to be available unto eternity. I know several other people that read on e-readers, and I'm the only one that doesn't use a Kindle, the only one that uses Calibre, the only one that even understands that there are e-book formats.
The folks on this board treat our digital collections like they are the same as our physical libraries. But that vast majority you referenced just doesn't see it that way
