Because it often takes me a couple of years to get around to reading them. I have to store them somewhere in the mean time!

As well as that, "most" is the important word, not "all". My favourite books I do keep, and I don't have enough storage space to keep everything I'd like as paper books. Eg, I recently got rid of 50+ Agatha Christie books which I'd subsequently bought as eBooks. The paper books were nice to have, but they just took up too much space. I've kept the Agatha Christie's which aren't currently available as eBooks.
