Yes, it may surprise you (and/or others) that many, many people still read.

Many, many, many people.

My personal experience: I have to wait in a virtual line at my library to check out most of the books I want to read. Yes, I do eventually purchase many of them.

Also, I (typically) don’t have the patience to wait for someone to get to their point in a video. Also, commercials are just…not always great.

Reading is fundamental!
