I delete books as soon as I've read them. My doohickeys just have to-read and currently reading books on them. And at that, it's only a fraction of my to-reads. I have about ten different reading classifications in my Calibre library and I generally have about 250 books in the top category on my reader. The rest can sit in Calibre until I shake things up, as I'm about to do for the New Year.
That's at least two years' reading and I don't see the point of loading more books onto a device, just because I can. Even with lots of shelves, it would become too much to scroll through when I'm looking for a next read. And while I could load another hundred or more books of equal appeal, eventually I'd get to the point where the books I was adding were somewhat to significantly less appealing than the ones already there, so what's the point?
