I buy almost no books printed on paper. I do, however, read about 100 paper books a year compared to 50 electronic and audio books. Part of this is due to winnowing out the backlog of books in my cottage, getting back-list books from the library, and participating in a couple of online book swapping groups.
I pick up lots of free eBooks throughout the month, buy the occasional eBook that I'm just dying to read (like the new Formic Wars books by Orson Scott Card), sometimes buy the Baen bundle if the books look good to me, and have a subscription to Audible.com. If I'm buying a printed book, it's usually a gift.
