Quite possibly true. But this won't cause the sky to fall, it's just another decision that you'll weigh up the cost/benefit of.
Not all decisions - even business decisions - are made on the primary basis of cost. There are all manner of other practical and emotional reasons to make a choice. If I had a particular reason to want to get the WSJ on an iPad, because that was the device that it suited me, then I'd pay the sub. Ditto for Kindle or whatever. Some people might, for instance, have a paper subscription for their reception area and another in electronic form, or whatever.
I only need one guitar to play a tune, but I've got twelve - all for slightly different occasions. Essential? No. Valued? Yes. I did have another one - bought solely on price - but I got rid of it, because price doesn't always equate with desirability.
