How about 15 MB for one book? That's the average size of my scanned p-books. Still, I can jam a few thousand into a single HDD with room to spare. That is one heckuva large space savings over the amount of room required for the P-books. I don't have the time or patience to edit OCR errors so I'm more than content to compromise to be able to read my image only PDF books on a reader small enough to fit in my purse. And I don't have to have every book I own on my reader at one time.
