I think that's something that really surprised me about e-books. I was so used to digital pictures taking up so much space on my computer, I kind of assumed books would take up a lot of space, too. A book that is only text is very small. The larger ones in my library have photos or illustrations.
Yes, it is a pleasure to finally have something digital that doesn't take up so much space! On the other hand, "back in the day," 1 MB was considered really, really big...
