Digital Reading has certainly grown in the last few years with the proliferation of more affordable tablets and e-readers. A recent survey conducted by Bookboon has brought to light that 1/4 of the entire United States buys eBooks and half intend on buying one within the next year. This recent poll was conducted by 6,000 U.S. 27.1% of the the respondents said they currently buy eBooks and 22.7% expect to within a year. Obviously, reports like this are not indicative to the entire US population, despite the contrary.
