You are definitely not the only one.
I downloaded more books from Gutenberg than I recognised, let alone could read, on the basis that it would be a library. I was able to enjoy classics I never got around to at school and even replace some of the science fiction I have as paperbacks already.
I've since gone back to Gutenberg and re-downloaded books in ePub format. My advice is if you are going "overboard" then make sure the books are in a non-proprietary open format such as text, html, epub etc so you will still be able to read them in the future.
