Don't rock the boat.
It's worked for a hundred years, so no reason it shouldn't still work just as well today. Why should we change?
It's too much of a bother.

As a 60+ person who felt the same way about ebooks as this publisher, I can only say I understand exactly what they are saying. Perhaps thats why I responded so.
However, it only took a few minutes reading on my K1 (insert any other ebook reader here) to change my mind.
I also was afraid I would miss the smell, the 'real' experience.
I wish, I sincerely wish, that I could meet with these people in person.
No, wait. I wish several of us, with different readers, could meet with these people. We'd need the entire day, with lunch breaks, but I guarantee we'd leave with promises of getting books out in digital format would be top priority..........
And I wouldn't even have to get out the stick!
