Bad Habit: Downloading Samples on the Kindle

Love my Kindle. Actually I have a handful. Pry them from my cold dead hands. But I only recently discovered that you can download free samples for many books. Try before you buy. 
 
And now I find myself reading the sample chapter and moving on to the next book. Much like I often watch the pilot for a fantastic TV show and then move on to the next pilot. 
 
For TV that’s OK. For books not so much. Almost wish I hadn’t seen this feature.
