Yes, books can be beautiful decorating items, but....

You need less lving space without them. As I convert my pbook library to ebook, I need less space to store things I use ocasionally. I haven't downsized yet, but my living space keeps looking neater and neater.

The same for piles of audio CD's as well.

Someday I expect to have all my permanent entertainment in a mini messenger bag...
