That was just going to be my response. I rarely re-read books but do keep favorites on the shelf just in case. And those are also books I'm willing to loan to others. That loaning process has been all but eliminated with ebooks. When I do re-read, I've had this quirky tendency to re-read almost immediately as I cannot let go of the feeling that that book just instilled in me.

I have a feeling the comment above your regarding the "darknet" will become more compelling if there's really a move to limit ownership to ONE read or ONE year or one whatever.
