One the other hand I have acquired 140 or so freebies and have only read one and a half books from my tbr.

Nothing wrong with acquiring freebees, but if the freebees are preventing you from reading the stuff you paid cold, hard cash with, then you need to think about your spending. Unlike pback freebees, your freebees take up little space. In fact, I have created a separate Calibre library with said freebees so that they don't muck up my main library.
The biggest problem with freebees is that they make using your online cloud library almost impossible to use. Once you get beyond say 500 books, it's scrolling, scrolling, clicking to find something (unless it is a recent purchase). B&N at least allows you to archive stuff. I'm told you can for the Kindle library as well, but I haven't figured out how to do that (if anybody knows, please post instructions!!).
