So, if this is what Penguin has done with the books already owned/licensed to the libraries, exactly what is this "no more Penguin books to libraries" REALLY all about.

I'm thinking the USB process makes it harder to crack DRM and harder for Amazon to get as much of your reading data (for syncing etc.).
As for "no more Penguin books" I think that means their new releases, not the existing book licenses already purchased by the library.
