A much needed topic, a counterpart to the physical library topic. Everyone not suffering from the Picard syndrome, show off your digital library. Mine:
Essays: And this being a digital library it would be impolite of me not to share the wealth. DL link and an alternative DL link. Because of upload/download times I left out 20% of the files that were the largest, so if anyone would like a text that was left out send me a PM or post here.

I have a ton of books on atheism, and the only reason I can think of to explain that is I was on a particularly fierce anti-religion bent about a year ago and I downloaded some pack of books on atheism. I haven't read any of them other than The End of Faith (which I actually read as a physical copy when my English professor lended it to me) and about 10% of Breaking the Spell, mostly when I was bored in class and happened to have my iPod with me.
I'm going on vacation Saturday and I think The Law will be great beach-reading material. That or Sherlock Holmes.
I was reading North's article when I came upon "Barnes & Noble recently announced that it is getting out of the e-book business. E-books don't sell." Then I looked at the date.
To paraphrase Marc Faber: We're all doomed, but that doesn't mean that we can't make money in the process. Rabbi Lapin: "Let's make bricks!" Stephan Kinsella: "Say you and I both want to make a German chocolate cake."
Haha, same here Muffinburg. I wonder how that helped out Barnes & Noble.
I mostly have the Mises Institute torrent of e-books downloaded on mine.
I've got a pretty good collection of essays and papers collected from various sources (which I'll add when I get back to the main computer), but I've also downloaded a few of the LvMI collections...
Mises Torrents 2.0 Available

My digital library is quite big and lots of it is from the Mises site. I am however looking form audiobooks, relating to philosophy, history, sciences, manufacturing and management.
