Fans of domination, bondage, are loyal, sub niche categories do very well.

Is it safe to say the popularity of ebooks can be linked to the rise of tablets and smart phones?

I have not noticed any improvement, however that may be because the "economic downturn" is counteracting it, and in reality my sales both improved as tablets/smart phones became popular and at the same time decreased because people were economising on luxury items like porn books, so stayed about the same.
