I can also borrow 2 e-books/audio books a week from my library.

Mostly, I just borrow physical books if I want to read something modern and download e-books in the public domain to read on my devices. I don't really have to worry a lot about the cost with my taste in literature.
And on Audible, you can purchase them for under $10/credit if you go with a longer term plan. That's really not expensive if you are comparing to buying popular current books, which tend to run $9.99-$14.99 (as opposed to older books).
