Technology changes. When cars first came along most though they could never replace a real horse and buggy. Printing with ink and paper is a hundreds of years old technology, its time to move on. It will be slow, but will happen. I have not bought a paper book in over 7 years. Same with CD's and DVD's and such, digital delivery is changing everything. I remember and used records, 8 tracks, cassette, and CD. Thank God I live long enough to enjoy mp3's and an iPod. I carry hundreds of full albums with me. And for years I have carried several ebooks with me as well. I think the new is so much more convenient and easier to use.

50 years from now it will an an extremely small minority that use paper reading material. Just like today there are a few groups (Amish...etc) that hang on to horse and buggys. Change takes time, but it will happen.
