As a frequent reader and re-reader of books, one of the large savings of ebooks vs paper books is the space. At this point the current success of ereaders and ebooks means that almost every new release is available in ebook formats. Additionally most current authors have a good selection of their published works available in ebook formats.
This removed a barrier to entry that was present 10 years ago. I can reasonably convert 100% to ebooks for future purchases. The exception being things like the collected works of Roger Zelazny since his estate is not interested in publishing ebooks.
I only converted 6 months ago but that still means there are 130+ books that I don't have to store in my library, most of those are hardcover. The continued growth of ebooks is obviously the product of positive feedback loops.
