I see the 'loaning content without loaning the Kindle' gripe come up here from time to time, and it puzzles me. When I loan someone a physical book, I don't give them every book in my library at the same time and then have nothing to read until they give me all my books back. I get to read all my other books while not having access to the 'one' I lent. Why is it so hard to understand that loaning your reader is not the same thing as loaning one book?
