You're thinking like a techy, put yourself in the layman's shoes.

The Kindle was a pretty big deal as the first widespread e-reader. My tech-challenged mom got one and she loves how easy it is to get a book and have it there.

Given that this change won't really affect her, she probably doesn't care. There's a lot more people like my mom than you or I.
