I think your thread title is misleading/incorrect.
Think of the internet as roads infrastructure, and the devices as the vehicles. Yes, people no longer use horses as much; they are now using cars and motorcycles. So no, roads are not dying; instead, the vehicles for transport we use have evolved.

Book were with us for 1000s of years and yet with each new invention what a book meant to the society at the time has changed. The OP correctly has observed that the change is real and that will means something specific (something we probably can't figure out as we are in the mids of it).
"[Something] is dead" is a nice way to speculate about the extremes even though it never reflects the thinking of the culture. The painting is dead, the art is dead, the anything is dead didn't exactly come true.

Most under privileged countries, like many of the African countries. bypassed the whole computer thing altogether and went straight to mobile phones.
Makes sense, they barley have running water or electricity.
Its the same information, just accused through a different interface.
True story, look it up.

as long as there is porn, and people watching porn, the internet will thrive.

The future will just be like Instagram. Designers will post work, stores will list their stock and companies will pretend to be people.
It's already happening.
People are too lazy or distracted to read long things now or watch video intros. People only want to see pictures and like them or post comments no one reads.
