The selling point for me RE ebooks was the immediacy. I no longer had to plan my reading. Didn't have to order ahead to have pbooks delivered. Didn't have to waste time at the local podunk library settling for titles that wouldn't have been my 3rd, 4th, 5th choices, if I had my drothers. Didn't have to plan trips to a quality bookstore--that may or may not have the books that interest me (and said bookstores were, and are, far enough away for fuel and time to be constraining factors). Didn't have to figure out which books (physical or electronic) to travel with me. I finish one book, do a little online browsing, buy something new and start reading it within minutes of finishing the last one--from anywhere in the world I choose to be. No lists, no shelves, no waiting no additional costs; just pure, free-range, on-demand reading with almost no stumbling blocks.

Yeah. Ebooks were a revolution for me. And they're not going to go away.
