I can jump on that one but I am the opposite. I am only in my early 20s and feel the need to have the actual book to read it. I work on computers so staring at a screen any longer than I have to just doesn't sounds appealing to me. I buy everything I want to read sometimes in duplicates. To me books are a work of art that can transport you to a whole new world while you read them so I always have one book with me wherever I go and more on the shelves than I will ever get to. My hope is that if some day the collecting world does die down I will still hold my collection near and dear. (I blame reading Fahrenheit 451 as a kid for this)
