The impact is much bigger than copyright -- copyright is simply the most obvious problem. The libraries compete with commercial entities. How can blockbuster rent a movie for two bucks when the same DVD can be taken out of the library for free?

Does fair use cover copying of Consumer Reports ratings and reviews? RIAA sues people for downloading an album over the internet but has no problem with people ripping a cd borrored from their public library.
