Just because people are arguing about it? People who enjoy debate will always find something to debate about. I'm not sure this discussion indicates much at all about what ebooks have wrought. For the majority of people who use them, they just buy / borrow them and read them. No muss, no fuss, no philosophical discussions.

Like issybird, I've long ago stopped "managing" my collection. For me, it wasn't even about being worried that someone would take my books away, it was just something I enjoyed fiddling with, a hobby. When I lost interest in the digital futzing, I just stopped doing it. And since then, I've mostly stopped purchasing books anyway, so my collection hasn't grown much in the last few years. I use KU and the library for 95% of my reads.
