Great until a societal collapse and the electrity goes out and the batteries die.

If that happens, reading as a leisure activity will likely be a rather low priority.

Unless you’re reading a book on carpentry, farming or a Chilton’s guide to your 1998 Chevy Lumina.

Books, the paper kind, ARE HERE TO STAY.

True. But not all reading is leisure. There is a great deal of reference material that would be useful after a societal collapse.
