&gt; That&#x27;s the most 1995 thing I&#x27;ve read all year.<p>Lol true :) the main reason is when I have a big stack of paper that I want to trash but I&#x27;m not sure if any of it will be relevant down the road. It&#x27;s a pain to go through each page and snap a picture, with a sheet feed scanner I just set it on there and push a button. The most relevant example I can think of is hospital bills - we had a baby last year and my wife was also in the hospital for an unrelated surgery for a few days, and all of the bills come on paper mail. It&#x27;s nice to trash the paper and still have the record.
