The one really big advantage of ebooks is that they don't clutter up your living space while waiting to be read. But they do haunt your computer and ebook reader -- "read me next - you bought me years ago!"

My TBR folder currently holds 266 ebooks. Nearly two years worth of reading, and that's not counting the 300+ classics downloaded from here. Although I have read quite a few of those 300. But then again, lots of them are anthologies.

And I have to admit that my TBR folder doesn't include quite a few ebooks bought at fictionwise in recent sales and not yet downloaded....
