Well, nowadays the circulation of books has reduced to a great extent, I will not say that it has completely ended, many people still like to read books but the number of such people is much less, if you talk about earlier, 50 years ago there were very few ways of entertainment, people depended only on books, magazines and newspapers and at that time television was also very weak and there used to be only a few channels through which you could watch some entertainment.

But if I talk about today, nowadays there is a lot for entertainment and so many options are available that you cannot even imagine, there are so many online platforms through which you can entertain yourself, some are free and some are paid, people choose different platforms according to their choice, but if I talk about the first, then the popularity of books has become very less, nowadays different technologies have been introduced, such as through which you can listen to books in audio form, but if you read something then it is a different matter, if you also like reading books then you must be understanding my point.

As I said, earlier there used to be very few ways of entertainment, so people used to resort to books to get entertained or I say to pass their time, but now they do not need to do so because nowadays there are many mediums available through which one can also keep oneself entertained, so perhaps this is the reason that the popularity of books is decreasing nowadays, what do you think about this.
