That became my litmus test for freebies. Back in the day, when the first book of a backlist series frequently was free as a come-on when the series was digitized, I figured I got lucky. I don't see that often anymore, but I'm not much of a series reader so it may be a case of not noticing.
The main argument for stockpiling freebies, that someday I might be broke, doesn't resonate with me. Not that I might not be broke, but I figure there will always be options (by which I mean the library and public domain, and not the Black Act).
