Newspaper Article.

Post by Lakelander »

My yesterday's newspaper contained the following Article:
"PEOPLE are putting paper-backs aside on holiday and reaching for e-books instead, according to a survey. E-reading devices such as Kindle are now the prefered way to get stuck into a good novel while on a break, the poll by travel agency 'Sunshine' found. A total of 1928 UK adults who had been abroard on holiday in the last 12 months were surveyed. Of those who had read while away, 51% had used an e-reader."
Certainly not conclusive, but a clear indication of the swiftly growing trend.

From yesterday's national press: There are now 114 eBooks for every 100 Print books sold. Again, perhaps not conclusive, but the trend is clear. What will be these proportions, a year from now and say, five years from now?
