My brother is similar but he does use an ereader for 90% of books these days. Now his book collecting hobby and the allure of a printed copy are restricted to his favourite or important books, 5 years ago he'd buy 100 books a year for £3 each, nowadays he'll buy 3 or 4 books a year for £50 each and his satisfaction for good quality old or important copies of books goes through the roof.
It's possible to have your cake and eat it too is what I guess I'm saying.
