Yep, in my case, it's kind of like giving an alcoholic the keys to the liquor store.  I really have to watch myself.  Fortunately, there's a ton of free stuff on Project Gutenberg.

Project Gutenberg is 31 flavors of zombie killing awesome.  Check out Baen's Free Library.  They've got heaps of current sci-fi and fantasy they and the authors have agreed to post as free samples.

What's truly scary is that since i've gotten my nook, my book purchases have increased two fold. Because I still buy the same number of dead tree books and an equal number of electric books.
