I may buy paper books if a) the story is one I have already read and loved from the library, and b) I happen to see it dirt cheap second hand at a yard sale.

I am in the same position though. I have a lot of e-books that I have obtained for free, that the rush to go out and own a book would have to be if it is very special (and I let library loans determine that) and I can afford it, either e or dtb.
