TKC 339 Seth Godin at Digital Book World
Author, entrepreneur, maker of ruckuses
Interview starts at 4:33 and ends at 14:50.
Paper books are going to gradually and painfully and very, very slowly disappear. They’re going to become like LP’s. One by one the bookstores are going to go away, and then one by one the kids that grow up reading all the time on paper are going to go away. It might not even happen in my lifetime, but it’s always going to go down.
