Do you have physical books you'd read on Kindle if scanning weren't so tedious?

I’m curious if anyone else has this problem.

I have physical books that I’d probably read more if they were on my Kindle, especially older or niche books without a good ebook version. But the idea of scanning or photographing every page by hand makes me give up before I start.

For people who have tried it: was the annoying part mainly the page-by-page work? Turning pages, keeping the book flat, checking page order, fixing shadows, doing it for hundreds of pages?

Or do you actually get through the scanning part, and the real pain comes later with OCR/PDF/formatting?
