Because my house became full of books - double-stacked shelves on every available wall. To buy more books I would have had to buy a larger house. For me personally, eBooks are worth FAR more than paper books, because I can store an essentially unlimited number of them on an external drive the size of a pack of playing cards. Naturally I remove the DRM as soon as I buy a book (and I typically buy 4 or 5 books a week).
