There are tools available to screen out the distractions.

There are also tools available to enhance the reading experience.
SpeedReader
for example. Reading at speeds of six hundred words per minute are not uncommon.

Note: I read at about twice that speed, and 'scan' much faster yet. Reading can be expensive. I'm so glad that there is so much free content. Oddly enough I'm also a writer and as such find it necessary to do research. I've always been curious about almost everything. I had a college library card when I was a preteen. NOW I can find stuff, have it read, digested and summarized before I could even look it up in the Dewey Decimal Card Catalog back then.

I can't understand why anyone is upset? They would complain if they were hung with a new rope. (old saying)
