All I know is that I turned to Pathfinder when it released, partly because of 3e's flooding the market with splat.  I know I didn't have to buy them, but like you I was a collector and I did.  I definitely didn't use all of them.  But I found that ultimately, I wanted to get away from the system because of all of it.  Of course, this was not the sole reason I left 3e, or even the main reason, but it was a reason.I'm one of those types that like to go all out, or not at all.  That can definitely be a fault in many cases, and it's my failing, but it's just who I am.  So when I see something, like an RPG in this case, that I'm interested in, I wan't everything I can use, and I want it now, lol.  That can be very frustrating when there's a lot of books out for the system.  Logically, I should just get what I can at the time, and enjoy it.  But usually, I get frustrated with the research I'll have to do, finding and examining the contents of each book so that I can decide whether I want it.  So instead, I put it aside for later because I don't want to get into it with what time I might have at the time, then I end up never doing it.Like I said, it's my own failing, so take that for what it is.  But this particular customer ends up not buying into the system, or I end up frustrated and leaving the system.</blockquote>
