Because, I don't get how you fail to notice a big number of members who read in 1 year, the amount of books you have read in your entire life.

So no, you don't have a hunch. You're projecting.
Average avid reader will read somewhere between 30-60 books a year, and most of the people I know who read are like that.
Older people in my experience read even more, if they are retired.

I can't tell you how silly your post sounds, and if people bought books from amazon in the quantities you read them, amazon would go under in a jiffy.
As I mentioned in another post, I am a GADGET Collector, not an eBook Collector. I have FOUR Kindles now and would buy any gadget Amazon introduces with their brand name at any price up to $ 1,000.

I doubt anyone else but me in this Forum would buy FOUR Kindles in one year to read just 6 eBooks in that time frame.
