No, no, NO. Even taking into account the all-powerful "personal needs"... there is simply no way anyone needs to bump up their onboard storage FROM 1,500 books to 32,000+. When do you plan on reading all those, and why is it impossible to get to a computer anytime in the intervening two decades???
I've been thinking of why someone would need more eBooks on their Reader then could be read and I may have one answer. It would be because that person has no idea what he/she wants to read next and by having all of those eBooks available, there is a greater choice of what to read next.

A lot of times when I go on vacation, I don't actually have that much access to Wifi, so if I am not sure of what I might want to read, having a lot of eBooks with me would give me more choice of what to read as I would not be able to connect to home, grab some eBook and read. Also, my computer at home will be turned off so even if I had WiFi, it wouldn't do me any good to connect to home.
