This makes the most sense to me. Creating and supporting the infrastructure required to offer lending for something that is not resource limited seems like an odd idea to me. When anyone can have their own copy in seconds straight from the source the simplest solution seems to be just get your own copy. The simplest solution is usually the best. Plus why make a person who is not lending books subsidize those who are?
