Will books survive?

Seeing as how we were discussing about books surviving the digital, I found this article that believes books won't survive! It is believed they will be gone in approximately 25 years as generations that grow up with digital content won't use physical content.
The article explains what this entails for writers and the whole book industry.

  1. The article is interesting indeed, however I am curious to know what you and everyone else think of this topic...
    I personally enjoy reading e-books on my Ipad, it may seem weird at first.. but you get used to it just like anything else, and plus I am a friend of nature and for me books are not eco-friendly at all, I think of all the trees that had to be killed for every single book...

    What do you think ?
