Yes I did, and I was fine with that. No complaints about not borrowing library books from me.

The hell it isn't my right to access my library's services as I damn well see fit. It's not like I'm protesting at the library demanding that they offer ebooks in a format that pleases me. But if they are, then I'm going to use the service and not feel bad about it just because other people have to wait longer.
What I was getting at is the constant implication that Kindle users shouldn't be able to borrow ebooks from the library because it will make longer waiting lines. It's my right to borrow books if I want to, if it means you have to wait longer, then suck it up and wait.

It's not anything remotely like that at all.
