It rather depends on how you defined your TBR. I don't count free ebooks. I get any free ebook that looks vaguely interesting, but I don't necessarily download and look after them.
Books that I've bought, on the other hand, do count. I think that around a three month TBR list is reasonable. That way you're unlikely to run out of books to read, but equally you're able to add a new release and read it without worry.
For me a TBR of three months would be about 40 to 50 books. My TBR at the moment is 343 books. Whoops.
I now don't expect to get my TBR down to the 50 book range before the end of 2014 at the earliest, and it's more likely to be the end of 2015 or later.
