That's a strawman if I ever saw one. I never said that I represent everyone else. I said I think they're gimmicky. And I said that I think they'll eventually end up in the dustbin of technological history.

Think about what is involved in printing and distributing books electronically versus on paper. With that in mind the future is obvious. It is already happening with such things as scientific journals. That has made a huge shift towards electronic at every step of the process. And then of course there is the music example.
