In my case, my books (including magazines scanned to searchable PDFs) are mostly scanned image only PDFs and eat up 24GB on my drive. Talk about space hogs! And it will get worse since I'm only halfway through with scanning my dead tree books and I keep adding more.
My books will eventually pass up my music collection (35GB for a little over 400 CDs; I keep large MP3s). Fortunately, I have plenty of room on my HDD.
