Case in point, you take my Elfquest volumes. Lovely books, pretty colors. You can't buy them in ebook form because the Pinis -- wonderful people that they are -- have decided to offer them all free on their website. Which IS lovely, but now I'm looking at Print Screening the lot of them or just cutting the book and stacking it on the scanner. Which is going to take more time? My money is on the Print Screen key taking longer.

I solved this dilemma by torrenting the files. Since they're available online at the Warp Graphics site I didn't feel like I was denying the Pinis any future income. It does save you from trying to capture all the pages and/or cracking the spines on all your books.
You do have to be careful if you're honest about only keeping what you own in paper versions. I ended up with a copy of the Wavedancers series which I didn't own, as well as Jink (I only have the first 3 issues) So, I deleted the unowned issues.
I did buy Wavedancers while on vacation in France. Maybe I ought to download those, again.
