MODERATORS
If you look at old silent movies, they were played at different speeds in different cinemas and projections. There wasn't a standard way to play a movie, no "you NEED to play the movie at this specific speed or it will be ruined". I'm not saying the same should apply to modern movies, but I find it interesting.
I imagine in a few decades we might have AI media. You could read a web novel with a fewer or a lot of pictures, or read it as a manhwa / webtoon, or as an anime, or as a virtual reality 3D experience that is semi-interactive. And you could give instructions to shorten or expand it, or even diverge in the plot a little, or change the characters. More like the holodeck with a VR headset.
So anything except actually enjoying reading a book.
The book still exists, nobody is taking that away. But now you can enjoy it in different media forms.
Never said anyone was taking it from me. Just concerning that someone would think that any of those things are the same as reading a book.
