I literally don't have a library where I live, so I have to spend $60 a year on a membership to one.
When I got a Kindle, I dropped my membership because there didn't seem to be much of a point anymore. I was never really interested in bestsellers or really any new stuff - just a few historical mystery series that would come out about once a year or so.
I do miss those, but at the same time, I figure if I wait a few years and then join again, there will be 3-4 of each for me to read. I can wait.
And bleh, the SF section of the library was terrible. Their idea of a classic was William Shatner's (Ghostwriters) TekWar.
