re: Has binge-watching Netflix series and other shows taken the place of books?

I'll say this, reading is a common habit amongst people I'd consider successful. I had lunch with two CEO's of publicly traded companies last year. They discussed which books they've read and which ones they plan to read in the near future. Hell, one even wrote a book.
Food for thought.

I think it depends on what's being read. Reading something cobbled together by the James Patterson committee, or 50 Shades of Grey, doesn't necessarily make you a better person than a House of Cards or Breaking Bad binge-watcher.
I don't read physical books or fiction all that much anymore. But I still read a lot. But now it's just a lot of white papers, technical blogs, and forum posts (some higher brow than others).
