Don't see what the problem is. So millenials like to retain some connection to the physical world rather than glue themselves to the same old glowing screen all day for all activities, from work to reading to movies to music.
These things retain and comprise rituals, and rituals matter to human beings. Whether it's dedusting your DVD collection or swapping books with friends, reading a magazine in a park or cafe, etc.. netbooks, tablets, phablets have zero soul. Some go to extremes such as vinyl, most don't. Still.
Let tech figure out aviation, industrial goods production, logistics and what not. Software doesn't have to eat everything. It might technically be capable of doing so, but if younger consumers inadvertently decide to slightly delay the all-out zombification of the masses for another decade or until they get hooked on GoogleAppleMicroCorp's always-on SmartGlassVRContactLenses, I say good riddance.
