I remember when the Harry Potter books came out. I wanted to read one of them that I didn't have (I can't recall which, but one of the 1st 4 books I think) and by time I put a hold on a copy there was already a very, very long waiting list. I suppose the same probably applies to loaned ebooks as well. Especially if it's a new title.
