So, yes, changes are coming in the book world with the growing prevalance and popularity of electronic products. Change is something to be aware of and to be prepared for.
It seems, though, that hard copy printed books are in no danger of a complete demise in the near future. Amazon.com has just announced the building of a large distribution centre in Canada to expedite the shipping of books throughout the country. When a huge corporation makes a large financial investment you know that considerable research is behind the decision. I take this move by Amazon to indicate that they still believe that a large part of their business remains and will remain in the printed book.
Time will tell whether I am right or wrong. I suggest that you hedge your bets: market your books in more than one format.
