I've never felt that reading was a competitive sport.

What do you track? Just title/author or do you know the exact edition of every book you have read back through 1993 including how many reading sessions it took to read each book? ...

If I did track my reading it would be much further back than 1993, more like 1956 or so. I've been reading ebooks since before 1993.
All I track is whether a book has been read or not read. Recent ebooks (since ~2000 CE) via calibre using the rating column, or my now few paper books with a gold satin ribbon as a bookmark (no bookmark = read). I use calibre's rating column for my personal opinion with no rating meaning not read. With paper books, if it is read and still on the shelf then I had a positive opinion about the book or it is a special printing. If I don't particularly like a book that I've read I unload it on someone else (via a used bookstore or "freebay").
