This is a good change but it doesn’t go far enough. Infinite scroll is obviously the best way to read long form content. Unfortunately, most book sales are by people who like the idea of reading books more than actually reading

You think? I tend to find I get "lost" more easily in a big scrolling document, particularly if I'm coming back to it several times before finishing, as would usually be the case with a book.

In the case of e-ink e-readers you also face the issue that their screen updating tech is really better suited to full page replacements then line- or pixel-level scroll, though of course that doesn't apply to Apple's devices.

"Obviously the best way" is probably too strong, though for me I do much prefer scroll mode for reading novels. And I like reading on my phone, because then I can read a few pages anywhere I want.
