It's ironic in a way; I've been cleaning out my closets and have been donating scads of barely worn and even entirely unworn clothing and shoes to the Salvation Army. But in addition to gaining physical space, I also have the incentive of getting the stuff out where it'll do some good. There's no such side benefit to getting rid of ebooks for which I paid good money. So there they sit. I need to profit by your example, since I'm a firm believer that electronic feng shui is good for the soul.
It's a process and I'm still processing, clearly!

I suppose, if the ebooks were purchased at Amazon and lending enabled, one can try to lend their copy to an interested party. That way others can enjoy them even if we didn't.
Can some kind of Amazon lending post be permitted on MR?
