This not really a question about a certain book as such, but I was wondering what you guys thought of ebooks.

I have downloaded several, probably 2 or 300, on all manner of topics from factual to non fiction - including many classic pieces of literature eg. horror stories such as Frankenstein, Dracula, Dr. Jekyll, as well as non horror - Sherlock Holmes, Tarzan to name but a few. I however do have some of these in paper format as well.

If you include the paper ones my collection probably consists of at least 500 books.

The reason I have so many ebooks is simply a matter of space and availability, if I wish to print them off I suppose I could, although it would need half of the Amazonian Rainforest to do so. Also about 99% of them are free, which as an aspiring author helps for research purposes.

The ebooks I have are mainly in pdf, or in MicroSoft Reader format.
