seems as daft as those folks who insist on putting 3000+ books onto their new Kindles then bitch about battery life & primitive collection management facilities - why would any sensible person do that...

now I will confess to having several thousand MP3 files but those songs have all been listened to, once at least. Several thousand books makes far less sense ???
My physical library consists of several thousand books. I've been reading for over 40 years and purchasing books for over 30. It's one of the reasons I purchased an e-reader. Carrying all those books around was ruining my back

My goal is to eventually have every one of those books plus whatever I buy new on my reader so 30,000 does not seem unreasonable to me.
