I mean, sure, there will be a small reader population who only uses their Kindle app and never anything else, but are "people who don't care enough about library books to download Overdrive/Bluefire from the markets" going to stick around for the long wait times? I wonder...
There are probably a number of people who have only a desktop PC and a Kindle reader, who don't really enjoy reading extensively on desktop PC, and don't want to mess with ADE. I am one of those people. How many people fit into that category? I'm not sure...but it will become very clear once the Kindle/Overdrive program begins.
