I'm in a similar position... I "paid off" my new book club membership last night for an all up cost of about $200. Ow! I had to resist the temptation to just buy entire series or authors though. But I think I'm going to increase my budget on this, and try to get more of my collection electronically.
It does amuse me that I only buy cracked "secure" formats because I don't want to be saddled with DRM. But it is nice to be able to buy newer works (and some older ones). I think I'm going to try to automate the process a bit more so I can do less clicking and more reading.
