> I would buy one quality hardcover book per year as a birthday gift to myself
Care to give an example? I assume that by quality you mean both quality construction of the book itself as well as quality content printed on the page?

I don't know that I'd consider much of any books I own to be "quality". But the house I have does have a fairly nice built-in bookshelf that could probably hold 500 books all by itself. Someday I'll fill it, maybe? With mass-market paperbacks and hardbacks? "Quality" books? Who knows!
