No, the internet has not killed the printed book. Most people still prefer them.

Even with Facebook, Netflix and other digital distractions increasingly vying for time, Americans’ appetite for reading books — the ones you actually hold in your hands — has not slowed in recent years, according to a study by the Pew Research Center.

Sixty-five percent of adults in the United States said they had read a printed book in the past year, the same percentage that said so in 2012. When you add in e-books and audiobooks, the number that said they had read a book in printed or electronic format in the past 12 months fell to 73 percent, compared with 74 percent in 2012.

Twenty-eight percent said they had opted for an e-book in the past year, while 14 percent said they had listened to an audiobook.

Count me in the printed book category now that I am retired. I use to also like audiobooks when I had a long drive to work back in the day.
