Well, now that you pointed it out... I am more sensitive to the ownership of my ebooks, than paper equivalents. I can not take with me my bookshelf, I can pack SD choke full of books and go to extended vacation. Where I might just feel like rereading some book.

I don't think it is about collecting... Omnia mea mecum porto
