Well, some people do change, others just get multiple accounts. It also depends on how long you've been using e-mail. For example, when I first got an e-mail account hotmail was the most popular and easy to get for free but then because it was so popular it became very susceptible to spam. There are five e-mails that I use regularly (I have more since I got specific ones for specific jobs in order to avoid clutter). The hotmail I honestly use as my SPAM address (the one I use to register anywhere where I fear I will likely receive spam as a result). Two others I have because I was able to get the name I wanted on them and one of them is from godaddy so as long as the domain is ours it is reliable in that it most likely won't disappear despite its small capacity. The other two I have because they are relatively reliable in spite of not being the exact names I would have liked and they have large capacities. Plus for Android you really should have a gmail address.
Also, I do tend to use the same password or variants of the same one on many sites. But
not the important ones. For example if someone hijacked my mobileread account it wouldn't honestly be a big deal (no offense). While if someone hijacked my bank account, kobo account, paypal or any of those then it would be a big deal and that's why they have much safer and unique passwords. Facebook... I don't really use it but I would care since it has my real identity and as such my name could be besmirched by a hijacking.

Oh, may I suggest that in order to avoid future panic attacks you backup your books by downloading the epubs, maybe deDRMing them with calibre?
