My objection to the library lending for Kindle as currently set up it with having to go through the Amazon web site and having to have an account with Amazon, versus just being able to use a library card as with the epub and pdf content. That and as I say I went through the Kindle content lending process as I said, and it is apparent that Amazon is not interested in lending, it is after a sale.

Absolutely, and even moreso when you see the emails they send you when the loan is up -- You can buy this book right now at: LINK...
