On average, I move every 12-16 months. Including multi-day trips, I spend a significant fraction of my life on the road.

I've developed an instinctive aversion to owning physical possessions, and no article about how surrounding myself with a bunch of boat anchors makes me a better person will change that. The monetary cost for owning a physical book is simply too high, and then I can't even read it for half the week!

I only buy physical books when I want the physical version specifically.
