> 1) how many e-books have you purchased total (all sources)?

About 25-30, mostly these are LIT format books from various sources, but mostly fictionwise or HapperCollins.

the rest are Connect specific -

2) how many e-books have you purchased via Connect?

three, but two were with the free credit. I will not be buying any more because of a fault with my reader screen that renders the top 70-80 'pixels' dead. No problem with books I can format in Calibre, but LRX are unreadable.

3) What kind of books are you buying?

Mostly Mystery, SF and Fantasy

4) How many new books verse e-copies of books you already have?

All new except one Tony Hillerman novel.

5) How many backlist (i.e. older) books do you have, and by who?

Most of my eBooks were purchased back when I used an iPaq so are older books, but still good reads.
