I usually delete mine when I'm done to save hard drive space. Unless it is a really awesome chapter that I'll probably want to read again.

Why isn't it the best result in the world?

Did you mean you forgot the option of "only or mostly buy in a hard copy format"?

Ha, indeed. Comparing this to the last poll, where the majority bought less than 10 volumes a year (i think it was), seeing a majority with more than 15gb just kept on their computer is a little disturbing...

But there are probably a good number of people that are buying hard copies of manga that don't know about scanslations. Considering how cheap some manga are used, what would the numbers being in Japan? But really, I think Book-Off allows for people to read their books in store (since they are a re-seller/second-hand store). But I guess there isn't that much difference since Chapters and Indigo have chairs unless the store is too small to place them anywhere.

i have a lot manga on my hd but i buy most of the series (if i like them) as soon as they are released here in germany. so i was in the <15gig category here and whatever was the highest choice in the poll before, and i didn't look good to me that most of the people who download scans buy less than 10 volumes a year. i mean, thats 2 series at most if they are released bi-monthly.
