Yeah, but books aren't a shrinking niche like buggy whip manufacturers. Or are they? I'm a victim of the media age too and visual experiences like movies, television, streaming Internet video, and video games have pulled me away from reading as much as I used to. On the other hand, I believe the world has more literate people now than ever before, and that's not just counting Chinese. Books are still relevant; we just have to get people in the habit of reading again. I'm hoping ebooks will help with that.
