From the BBC site:
With the rise of electronic books, is the final chapter about to be written in the long love story between books and their readers? Will the app take the place of the traditional book?

Alan Yentob discusses the subject with writers Alan Bennett, Douglas Coupland, Ewan Morrison and Gary Shteyngart, publisher Gail Rebuck, agent Ed Victor and librarian Rachael Morrison. They also smell books, making precise notes about the distinctive aroma of each.

A note: have pop ups suppressed and use an ad blocker for the sites if you want to watch the hour and 10 minutes. 

I'm currently watching it so I will refrain from commenting right now.  Except for one thing,  I realized I carry the entire book van at the start in my pocket on my ereader.

So what do you think about the show?
