It all depends on your attititude to books etc. Some people (like me) want to keep most of them forever. Others see many of them as disposable, like magazines.

This describes my situation too. And apart from flimsy quality weekly magazines, I keep everything I read, one reason why an electronic reader, combined with storing files in at least two (geographically separate) places, is very appealing - I'm running out of shelf space.
