Hi Amy! Good observation, something that never occurred to me. I suppose that may be the case, that some people like having classic books in order to make themselves seem more intellectual. I had shelves and shelves full of them, but that was due to having bought them when I was still in college studying lit. I got rid of everything a few weeks ago, except for some art books and travel books. I only kept one ginormous complete Shakespeare (the big Norton monster that is too heavy to move, much less carry to class).
There are tons of great classics right here at Mobile Read in the book upload section. I recommend PMing Dr Drib and asking him about some of his recent collections. He has collected zombies, pulp fiction, all sorts of genres and pulled them together into coherent anthologies.
