how is it in the interest of Publishers?? if they didn't want people to borrow books then they would not have epub in libraries. They often use libraries to promote new authors. Overdrive also has mobi books available, but Amazon is the one that changed their system to make it harder to borrow books not Overdrive not the libraries ... but Amazon they are the ones that really don't want you to borrow books from libraries.
I understand, it easy for people to slam publishers and see them as the big bad guy, but I always find it interesting how Amazon fans ignore or even come up with weak excuses to explain why Amazon has done something... If Amazon was the only game in town (like the fan boys all seem to want) then we would not have any ebooks in Libraries.
I will not bother debating with people who's whole argument is .. I want something ..so I take it .. I don't bother with laws or ethics ..I just want so I take!!
