I'm afraid so.  The age of electronic information is here (as much as we may detest that fact).  Just look at the decline of The New York Times.  It wasn't long ago when this was the newspaper of choice.  Now, it's struggling to stay out of bankruptcy.  What is more interesting is looking at the ages of those answering.  : )  In my own life, I have found that people older than 40 are quite beholden to their papers, people in their thirties don't mind either way, and those younger than thirty prefer electronic information.  I am in the middle category with one exception, . . . books.  I can't imagine that I will EVER read a book in electronic format.  I love to "flip" pages, especially as the teacher of Literature that I am.  But then again, notice that I didn't say "never."  ; )
