Your question is an interesting one that is also very complex. Without a doubt, the "new Media" that individuals are employing is different from literary texts and the difference in genre can make a real difference. I agree with Mitja that some of the reason lies there...those learners/consumers are employing a media that is different in style and in how the information is relayed...since individuals employ this new media, they are less oriented to the more literary structure of books. With regard to the style, one is not better than the other, they are different. I would argue, however, that the new media is less oriented to the deeper and reflective aspects of our human condition and so the content appears (to me, at least) to be more superficial in the new media. David Lodge in his essays about the evolution of the novel, for example, shows very effectively that this literary device developed quite unique ways to address and share consciousness across individuals that simply cannot be done in other types of media.
Another issue is how the decreasing book reading habits are measured....if this is done without careful consideration of how audiobooks and electronic books have impacted the sells of physical books and how they are shared across individuals, then the data might be less accurate.
