E-Readers Make People Want to, Go Figure, READ


Tech News Daily takes note a new study that on peoples' reading habits with all these new fangled reading devices out there.

From the story...

The survey looked specifically at e-readers and the iPad, asking participants: "Do you use an electronic reader device, such as a Kindle, an iPad or a Nook, to read books?"

Over half of people with e-readers, 53 percent, said they read more now than they did six months ago compared to 18 percent of non-e-reader users, according to The Harris Poll of 2,775 adults surveyed last month.

E-reader users are also more likely to buy books. Twenty percent of respondents without e-readers said they have not purchased any books in the past year compared with only eight percent of e-reader users who said the same.
