There are reference books that I have used over and over again throughout the years. There are also many more books that I have read and discarded. There is also a group of books I keep around because I feel better just knowing that I can read them again if I want to.
Of late I have been going through a lot of the books here and sending a bunch of them to the local library to do with as they please. Some they keep while most are consigned to book sales to raise money for the library to buy other things that they think they need more than the books I donate. (I gave them to the library to do as they please, it does not bother me if they dispose of them. After all, I disposed of them.)
Like Harry and Jon before, I am not one to buy a lot of DRM books for the Sony Reader. After the $50 credit ran out the few books I buy for the Reader are generally LIT format that I convert to LRF. Of late I have stumbled on Fictionwise and their eMagazines -- Analog, Asimov's, etc. They are not DRM'd but even so I have never been a magazine collector.
