That has to be the most dystopian-sci-fi-turning-into-reality-fast thing I've read in a while.

I'd take smartphones vanishing rather than books any day.

My point was Kindles vanishing, not books vanishing. Kindles are in no way a prerequisite for reading books.

I have found ebooks useful. Especially when I was traveling by air more. But certainly not essential for reading.

You may want to make your original post more clear, because i agree that at a quick glance it says you wouldn't miss books.

I didn't believe you meant that of course, but we've already seen it can happen.
