I'm almost exactly the same way. A lot of people seem to have some sort of penchant for collecting, cataloging, and organizing, but I simply lack the time or inclination for it. The only books I re-read are Dracula and Slaughterhouse Five, but only once a decade or so... At that rate, I'll just re-buy or download. No biggie.
I only keep 5-10 books on the Kindle at a time and usually remove them after I read because it just seems more manageable.
I do like having a lot of books in my Amazon cloud because my family shares a library and I can read my wife's "chick books" on the sly.
(Seriously though, she has the new Wally Lamb book (something something about water), so I just may have to take that out for a spin. I read her copy of She's Come Undone which was a freakishly good read. Seriously, for four days I didn't bathe and lived on Pringels. I even I called in sick so I could finish it.
