They could have '1 at a time' '2 at a time' plans. When you are done with a rental book and remove it from the device, the next one in your queue arrives.
I have often thought a Netflix-like book rental service would be an excellent idea. I'm am the type of person who never buys DVD movies. Nor do I watch a movie more than once. Same goes for books. A Netflix-like service would be perfect for someone like me.
