The point under discussion was that if there is no technological enforcement of the check out period, wouldn't everybody just start stealing library ebooks, keeping them forever?
Evidence to the contrary is that plenty of what the library lends has no technological enforcement in the first place and the library has no problem with that.

And as for audiobooks not being digital downloads...WTF?
No the topic is checking out library books on a kindle. WTF?
