The way I read the change is it is the paper part that goes with the photo licence that will be phased out. Not the paper licences that were issued before the photo licence was introduced.

As the changes are to reduce red tape it would be ridiculous to force those of us with paper licences to have to apply for photo licences.
Yes your right its the paper counterpart to the photo-licence their on about.
I'll carry on then using my tatty piece of paper smile

Did notice from article below that you won't have to keep on declaring sorn every year, that was another pain in the bum with a good chance of DVLA giving you another penalty for failure to do so.
