I'd be careful who you call "rabid." (Refraining from applying unthinking labels to people is sort of the point of this thread.)

Besides, there is a reason e-books are a developing format, whereas paper has run its course, and is now more of an environmental danger than a useful format. Sure, paper has uses... but for sheer use-flexibility, storability, ease of replication and archiving (and if people don't properly store their paper books, they can rot very quickly), smaller carbon footprint and less damage to the environment in its production, e-books are just plain better than paper for literature.
