I can give you two

1) Because I want to impress my collegues?

2) Let's do some math. 24 hours in a day, 8 hours sleep, 4 hours eating washing shopping etc. No job. That leaves 12 hours to read books. Assume I read an avarage book in 4 hours. That makes 3 books a day. About 1100 books a year. I started reading when I was 7, avareage life expectancy 77. So I need 70*1100 = 77000 books on my reader. My avarage book is around 800 Kb. So I really need 6.2 Gig. OMG!!!!! I'm going to sell my Cybook, it is useless.
