If the internet makes you happy. fine. It certainly supplies me with a lot of interest.
The library of Babel however contains not only every book that has been written but every book that it is possible to write so I think it has the edge on its textual content. That is why I would want it in the afterlife as only then would I have the time to do it justice.
With regard to Science Fiction books I could also nip into Eternicon and talk to the author about a book I was reading/had read.
