How about
:
An author you love to read and reread has no books in the Public Domain.
The author's books are no longer being sold new and are not available as a retail ebook.
Your painstakingly collected set of books has already disappeared once.
As you come across the books again in flea markets, used book stores, and/or library sales, you make a scan of the book for storage on your ereader.
Now you can carry the books around everywhere and if your collection goes bye-bye again you at least have the digital copy.
