While I am like so many others who are out of room for more books (and/or sick of searching my house looking for a particular book!), whether I buy e-book, print, or both completely depends on the book:
(a) some books are not well-suited to e-reading on a portable device -- lots of graphics, or reference-type books that you must flip around a lot within. I may still buy an-ebook version if the price is right, but I'll also likely pick up a printed version.
(b) some books I love enough to want both. Even though I have pretty much every book in the Miles Vorkosigan series by Lois McMaster Bujold already in paper format, I recently bought many of them in e-book format as well. The price was right, and I reread at least one of these books every year or so -- having them in e-book form makes sense for me. I can also go the other way -- having an e-book may cause me to buy the hard copy as well.
