Jeff,
It's becomming common practise for DXpeditions to upload their logs to LOTW 
in parallel with the regular practice of paper QSLing.
.
IMHO, the income generated from donations or the "little extra" that most 
considerate DXers include with their DXpedition QSL requests should ensure 
the future of paper QSLing, at least for the forseeable future.

However, I feel there's no doubt that many DX stations do find the 
production and distribution of paper QSLing a huge burden and if  ARRL ever 
decide to accept eQSLs (print yourself paper QSL) things may begin to 
change?

73 Dave
