How is print books dead ?

And that's only units, in terms of revenue, ebooks is still pocket change in comparison.
i wasn't speaking in comparison to ebooks. ebooks suck in every way imaginable.
What other long-form text format has beaten print books ?
why are you coming up with these categories? "print is dead" doesn't mean "because there's print 2.0 now"
—radio is dead
—excuse me, but internet radio is nothing compared to am stations
—yeah, obviously people who don't listen to radio don't want to listen to radio with extra steps
—what other forms of radio has beaten radio?
what are you even
I am trying to understand what's the argument behind your statement. I mean, there are more books being published than ever and there are more readers than ever. So, I fail to imagine how are books dead. That's why I am asking these questions.
